 Betty Aberlin QuotationMovie Title: Dogma (1999) as Nun: Nun : You don't believe in God because of Alice in Wonderland? Loki : No, "Through the Looking Glass". That poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter" that's an indictment of organized religion. The walrus, with his girth and his good nature, he obviously represents either Buddha, or... or with his tusk, the Hindu elephant god, Lord Ganesha. That takes care of your Eastern religions. Now the carpenter, which is an obvious reference to Jesus Christ, who was raised a carpenter's son, he represents the Western religions. Now in the poem, what do they do... what do they do? They... They dupe all these oysters into following them and then proceed to shuck and devour the helpless creatures en masse. I don't know what that says to you, but to me it says that following these faiths based on mythological figures ensure the destruction of one's inner-being. Organized religion destroys who we are by inhibiting our actions... by inhibiting our decisions, out of... out of fear of some... some intangible parent figure who... who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years ago and says... and says, "Do it - Do it and I'll fuckin' spank you." Nun : I never thought of it that way... what am I doing with my life... what am I...? Loki : I know, I know. You should take all this money that you've been collecting for your parish and go out and buy yourself a nice dress. Movie Title: Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (1967) as Lady Aberlin: Lady Elaine Fairchilde : How much will it cost to fix the pipes? Lady Aberlin : 3,000. Lady Elaine Fairchilde : Oh, that's a bundle. Wait a minute, I've got a great idea: sell the castle. Friday and all of them can live someplace else. Lady Aberlin : I don't think they'd like that, Lady Elaine. How about selling the Museum-Go-Round? Lady Elaine Fairchilde : I don't think *I* would like THAT. Lady Aberlin : Oh boy. Oh girl. X the Owl : Okay? Let's have some cookies and put the whole thing aside. Henrietta Pussycat : Meow cookies meow for me meow Lady Aberlin. Meow are friends. Meow meow Aberlin! Meow here meow! Meow like meow cookie, Lady Aberlin? Lady Aberlin : Oh sure, Hen. I'm so glad you and X are feeling better. Um, aren't you? Henrietta Pussycat : X meow not meow friend. Lady Aberlin : Oh Henrietta, I don't think you mean that, really. Henrietta Pussycat : Meow was meow friend yester-meow. Meow will be meow friend tomorrow. Meow meow not meow friend today. X the Owl : And just because of all that, she won't let me have a cookie. Lady Aberlin : [singing to the tune of "There Are Many Ways to Say 'I Love You'"] Making a fruit salad can say 'I love you'. Henrietta Pussycat : Cleaning up meow meow before you're asked to meow meow. X the Owl : Making sure the fruit is washed without a spot. Uh, you missed a few, Henrietta. Henrietta Pussycat : Meow meow meow meow meow. Meow meow meow meow. [Angrily] Henrietta Pussycat : Meow meow meow meow meow. X the Owl : Well Henrietta I'm sorry but, uh, but you did. Robert Redgate : Robert Redgate here with an up-to-the-second report. It seems there has been some sort of mistake with the new product from National Bubble Chemical Co., their cans of air make wind instead of sweaters. If you have a can of Spray Sweater, please don't push its button. [phone rings] Robert Redgate : Robert Redgate here. You already have? Oh I see. Lady Aberlin : [answers another phone] Betty here. You have? I see. Robert Redgate : You've already let the air out too? I see, I'm sorry. [Another phone rings] Robert Redgate : Yes, well thank you. Yes, you have added to the wind. Robert Redgate : That's as fast as Spray Sweater. Lady Aberlin : But 100% more effective. Lady Aberlin : You hurt all of our feelings. King Friday XIII : Well, uh, what will we do about it? Lady Aberlin : What will YOU do about it? King Friday XIII : Well... I know. Handyman, do you have your Ukulele handy? Handyman Negri : Yes, sire. King Friday XIII : I will need a royal Uke fanfare please. [Handyman plays fanfare on his Ukulele] King Friday XIII : Very good. I, King Friday XIII, do hereby make a new rule. The new rule is that everyone who had hurt feelings will now have good feelings. Lady Aberlin : You can't order people to have good feelings, Uncle Friday. King Friday XIII : I just did. Lady Aberlin : Ugga mugga, Daniel. Daniel Striped Tiger : Ugga mugga, Lady Aberlin. King Friday XIII : Niece Aberlin and Lady Elaine Fairchilde, I presume? Lady Aberlin : Correct as usual, Uncle Friday. Lady Elaine Fairchilde : Correct, but not always, Friday. King Friday XIII : [discussing the chalk board for the new school] I don't understand it. She said she would be using a greenboard. Lady Aberlin : That's right, Uncle Friday. King Friday XIII : But in my school, we used a blackboard. I think she should use a blackboard. Lady Aberlin : But alot of the newer schools are using green. King Friday XIII : Oh, this newfangled stuff. What is education coming to? Even the pencil boxes have pictures on them. King Friday XIII : Perhaps I could listen to a few of these new ideas. Prince Tuesday : Oh Daddy, would you come with us? King Friday XIII : I will. Count me in with the best of them. Lady Aberlin : Oh Uncle Friday, sometimes you can be so kind. King Friday XIII : And sometimes unkind, I know. Lady Aberlin : That's what makes people angry with you. I guess you know that too. King Friday XIII : Yes, I am aware of that, Niece Aberlin. I talked with Queen Sara about that. Lady Aberlin : What did Aunt Sara say? King Friday XIII : She reminded me that people can love you even when they are angry with you. Lady Aberlin : Knowing that can help you to be kinder, can't it? King Friday XIII : It most certainly can. |
