This page will be made up of quotes that characters say over and over again, either during particular storylines, or in general. I obviously have barely started on compiling quotes for this page, so please email me with your favorites.
The reason behind this page,
in a nutshell...
A person can tune in just one day each month and know everything
that's going on because THE ENTIRE SHOW IS JUST REPEATED QUOTES,
rehashed in a different order for each show! Don't you think so? You
could just print the script from every day on this web page, because
there's only about one original line per day! (Thanks to Keridee for
putting it so eloquently.)
