plot bunnies: famous quotes

Jun 23, 2009 15:36

for any fandom:

"Here was an ice age in all earnestness, a picture of Northern Europe during the Great Ice Age." -Douglas Mawson, on sighting Adélie Land, Antarctica, 1915.

"I thought you would rather have a live donkey than a dead lion." -Ernest Shakleton to wife Emily, on why he turned away from the South Pole.

(what's scary is that, while I don't remember the exact date I wrote those two down, I know it was long before Primeval aired...maybe early Stargate or Enterprise)
