Allow me to drop a quote bomb:
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio / Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
--William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act I, Scene 5
And another:
"IN EARTH AND SKIE AND SEA
STRANGE THYNGS THER BE"
--H. Rider Haggard, She: A History of Adventure
“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”

Did Horatio meow back in response? Horatio is my neighbor's cat's name, and he's an awesome cat. He's totally Zen, makes no demands, does nothing unkind, just chills. You may pet him if you wish, but he does not require it. From now on he's the only Horatio that I believe exists.

"But why is it made of diamond instead of glass?"
"We don't know. That's the Conundrum."
--LOOM (Lucasfilm Games)
"But I'm still curious: why is it diamond, instead of glass?"
"We've no idea, no idea at all. That's the conundrum, you see."
--LOOM (LucasArts)
"Hmm... looks like a big plus sign. What could that possibly mean?"
--The Secret of Monkey Island (Lucasfilm Games)

Perhaps my favorite Tintin album is Le Secret de La Licorne.
Trois frères unys. Trois Licornes de conserve vogant au Soleil de midi parleron.
Car c'est de la lumière que viendra la lumière. Et resplendirra
la + de l'Aigle.
However, I actually prefer certain passages as they're rendered in the English translation (whose authors were good friends of Hergé).
Three Brothers joyned. Three Vnicornes in company sailing in the noonday Sunne will speak.
For 'tis from the Light that Light will dawn. And then shines forth
the Eagle's +
Of course, I also enjoyed Steven Spielberg's film adaptation (though not particularly the music, though some may accuse me of heresy for dissing John Williams). I particularly liked that the writers managed to work in Bianca Castafiore...
"Ciel! Mes bijoux!"
...and a posthumous Hitchcock-esque cameo from Hergé himself. (I'm fairly sure he'd have approved, having drawn himself into crowd attending the medal ceremony at the end of Le Sceptre d'Ottokar.)

"...and X never, ever marks the spot. Seventy percent of all archaeology is done in the library. Research. Reading. We cannot afford to take mythology at face value."
--Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
"Well, ah... now what's that supposed to be coming out of there?"
"Lightning... fire... the power of God, or something."
"I'm beginning to understand Hitler's interest in this thing."
"Oh, yes. The Bible speaks of the Ark levelling mountains and laying waste to entire regions. An army which carries the Ark before it is invincible."
--Raiders of the Lost Ark
"X marks the spot."
--Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

If anybody hasn't heard, Harrison Ford was in a plane crash. But he's (relatively) okay.
Incidentally, this isn't his first plane crash. Also he was piloting I think.
