I never married because I have three pets at home that answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog that growls every morning, a parrot that swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night.

Why do homeless people always live on the dirty streets of a huge city like New York? If I were homeless, I would spend my life getting to Hawaii or someplace warm and beautiful, and be homeless there.

Truth does not demand belief. Scientists do not join hands every Sunday, singing, "yes, gravity is real! I will have faith! I will be strong! I believe in my heart that what goes up, up, up must come down, down. down. Amen!" If they did, we would think they were pretty insecure about it.

If you love something, set it free. If it returns you have not lost it. If it disappears and never comes back, then it was never yours to begin with. And if it just sits there watching television, unaware that it has been set free - then you probably married it.

When I'm out slaughtering Jedi, I don't have to worry about getting enough calcium. That's why I drink milk. It's 9 essential nutrients help me keep my bones strong, which is good, because I'd look really stupid if one of my horns broke off.

When younger are you, strong bones milk builds, yes. But when adults, slow rate of bone density loss, it does. Strong am I with the Force at my age. When 860 years old you reach, feel as good you will not, hmmm?

It's pretty obvious that if there's anything the good ol' U.S. of A. excels at, it's selling and marketing all the crap this country produces. If someone dreams it up, there's probably someone gullible enough to buy it.

MULDER: Cow mutilations have increased steadily over the past few years and there's only one reason - aliens. They understand the nutritional value of milk.

SCULLY: Usually the skeptic, I have to agree that 3 glasses of milk a day gives you enough calcium to travel all over the nation to investigate strange happenings.

MULDER: The milk is out there.

Mulder and Scully

Normally, the only thing I like to put in my mouth is a cigarette, but being so busy, I need something more. I need something rich in nutrients, like milk. Milk offers me the calcium I don't get from tobacco smoke and gives me the nine essential nutrients I need for manipulating the minds of the masses, and perpetuating international government conspiracies. That's no lie.

Cigarette-Smoking Man

Around the office, I'm known for betraying people, but that's not all I do. Like a good rat, I drink milk. A lot of it. A minimum of 3 glasses a day gives me all the nutrients I need to effectively stab people in the back. Another plus - milk is rich in calcium, so I'll have a new arm in no time.
