Frank: It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
Jane: Goodyear?
Frank: No, the worst.
Thanks, Mr. Nielson... R.I.P."The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made."

In pure Hollywood terms, what an amazing life that man lived:
* The aforementioned Forbidden Planet, the first "science fiction with a soul" movie. Leading man. Oscar talk.
* Effectively two careers, one as Serious Dramatic Actor, the other as Deft Comedic Actor.
* Not to mention he pops up in the damnedest places... he had guest roles on literally EVERY TV Western of the 50's and 60's... I think he's in an episode of Star Trek as well; need to look that up... remember the Barbra Streisand movie "Nuts?" The one where she's a prostitute and kills one of her clients in self-defense? Guess who the client was?... He's everywhere! He's everywhere!
In short, a legend. He'll be sorely missed."I didn't hear a single comment about airboxes, "carbashians", or how terrible the car looked. I did see dozens and dozens of little kids in awe of the speed and how cool the cars looked. We should learn from our children."
