I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

I didn't think he was that old.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

He was 69, but had a rare autoinmune disease. Now we won't get a third Ghostbusters, as it had been on the works.  :(

A sad day.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Whoa.  :(
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Ramis's death is sad, but not tragic.  He lived a good, long life, and enjoyed professional success right up to the end.  RIP, Harold.  We'll miss you, but can't say that we hardly knew ye.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

He directed and/or acted in some of my favorite movies. :(

I knew he was a part of a lot of really good movies but I had no idea how many it really was. 

Very funny and talented man.  :(

He missed the Singularity by a few years.
