Pic of the Day: “Another book party?” “Oh! I didn’t see you sitting in the dark over there. Yeah! No actually, there’s a fire. I just got the call; they said maybe it’s arson. I’ve got to interview the marshal and see if it’s…” “Kylie, is he telling the truth?” “I… I don’t want to be put into the middle of this!” “Thanks, Kylie.” “Why is he wearing that bandit hat?” “His ears were cold. He’s not with us.”

Pic of the Day: “If you disobey the rules of society, they send you to prison; if you disobey the rules of the prison, they send you to us. Alcatraz is not like any other prison in the United States. Here, every inmate is confined alone… to an individual cell. Unlike my predecessors, Wardens Johnson and Blackwell, I don’t have good conduct programs, I do not have inmate counsels. Inmates here have no say in what they do; they do as they’re told. You’re not permitted to have newspapers or magazines carrying news; knowledge of the outside world is, ah, what we tell you. From this day on, your world will be everything that happens in this building.”

Pic of the Day: “Why did you call me at the office today?” “I had nothing to do. I wanted to hear your voice.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “I know, we’re all gonna die. Everybody knows that. But I’m going to die today. Funny that… you know, to know. But the thing is, is that I’m still scared. Really scared. Nobody will mourn for me, no one will pray for my soul. Will you mourn for me? Will you say a prayer for me?”

Pic of the Day: “I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he’s depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, ‘Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up.’ Man bursts into tears. Says, ‘But doctor… I am Pagliacci.’ Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.”

Pic of the Day: “Good night, good night. Parting is such sweet sorrow, That I shall say good night till it be morrow.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “Pop quiz, hotshot. There’s a bomb on a bus. Once the bus goes 50 miles an hour, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50, it blows up. What do you do? What do you do?”
Image
Pic of the Day: “You wouldn’t be able to do these awful things to me if I weren’t still in this chair.” “But you are, Blanche! You are in that chair!”
Image
Pic of the Day: “We have to live without sympathy, don’t we? We can’t do that forever. One can’t stay out of doors all the time. One needs to come in from the cold.” “I’m an operator, Control, just an operator.” “There’s a vacancy in Banking Section which might suit you.” “Sorry, I’m an operational man. I’ll take my pension. I don’t want a desk job.” “You don’t know what’s on the desk.” “Paper!” “I want you to stay, uh, out in the cold… a little longer.”

Pic of the Day: “In Vegas, everybody’s gotta watch everybody else. Since the players are looking to beat the casino, the dealers are watching the players. The box men are watching the dealers. The floor men are watching the box men. The pit bosses are watching the floor men. The shift bosses are watching the pit bosses. The casino manager is watching the shift bosses. I’m watching the casino manager. And the eye-in-the-sky is watching us all.”

Pic of the Day: “Colonel Von Luger, it is the sworn duty of all officers to try to escape. If they cannot escape, then it is their sworn duty to cause the enemy to use an inordinate number of troops to guard them, and their sworn duty to harass the enemy to the best of their ability.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “You see, there are still faint glimmers of civilization left in this barbaric slaughterhouse that was once known as humanity. Indeed that’s what we provide in our own modest, humble, insignificant… oh, fuck it.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “Scottie, do you believe that someone out of the past – someone dead – can enter and take possession of a living being?”
Image
Pic of the Day: “Why do you look so sad?” “Because you speak to me in words and I look at you with feelings.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “Shall I drive?” “I can’t refuse a dark-eyed brunette.” “And blue-eyed blondes?” “In any case you’re my kind of woman.” “What if I were a midget with glasses?” “I wouldn’t let you drive… Preposterous.”

Pic of the Day: “Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind, that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences any more. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We’re fighting for our right to live, to exist, and should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, ‘We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on, we’re going to survive.’ Today we celebrate our Independence Day!”

Pic of the Day: “A second flood, a simple famine, plagues of locusts everywhere, or a cataclysmic earthquake, I’d accept with some despair. But no, You sent us Congress! Good God, Sir, was that fair?”
Image
Pic of the Day: “I guess this is just another lost cause, Mr. Paine. All you people don’t know about lost causes. Mr. Paine does. He said once they were the only causes worth fighting for. And he fought for them once, for the only reason any man ever fights for them. Because of just one plain simple rule: ‘Love thy neighbor.’ And you know that you fight for the lost causes harder than for any other. Yes, you even die for them.”

Pic of the Day: “We play on a real diamond, Porter. You ain’t good enough to lick the dirt off our cleats.” “Watch it, jerk!” “Shut up, idiot!” “Moron!” “Scab eater!” “Butt sniffer!” “Pus licker!” “Fart smeller!” “You eat dog crap for breakfast, geek!” “You mix your Wheaties with your mama’s toe jam!” “You bob for apples in the toilet! And you like it!” “You play ball like a girl!”
Image
Pic of the Day: “And now, on with the opera. Let joy be unconfined. Let there be dancing in the streets, drinking in the saloons, and necking in the parlor.”
Image
Pic of the Day: “This is war, Peacock. Casualties are inevitable. You can not make an omelet without breaking eggs, every cook will tell you that.” “But look what happened to the cook!”
