I was going for dialect with the second clue. It could just as easily be George

I've only seen it once, but it's pretty memorable. These quotes are key. Can you explain why Worf is being dressed down by Sisko? "So what happened?" "You may not understand..." "Try me." "You were at my wedding... you heard the story of the first two Klingon hearts... how nothing could stand against them... and how they even destroyed the gods that created them. I've heard that story ever since I was a boy...but I never understood it -- really understood it -- until I was standing there in the jungle with my heart pounding in my chest... and I found that even Icouldn't stand against my own heart. I had to go back... and it didn't matter what Starfleet thought or what the consequences were. She was my wife and I couldn't leave her. "As your captain, it's my duty to tell you that you made the wrong choice. I don't think Starfleet will file any formal charges -- even a secret court-martial would run the risk of revealing too much about their intelligence operations... ...But this will go in your service record... and to be completely honest, you should know that they'll probably never give you a command of your own after this." "I understand." George

"Let's have an intelligent conversation here: I'll talk, and you listen." "Don't just stand there, kill something!" George

I knew this wasn't quite right. I couldn't figure out how nostra fit in. It hit me last night while I was lying in bed. (Scary, huh?) It modifies lingua and is in the ablative case, not nominative: "All Gaul is divided into three parts, in one of which dwell the Belgians, in another the Aquitani, and in the third those who are called Celts in their own tongue, but called Gauls in ours." Back to our regularly scheduled program. George

I always look at the example of Stephen in situations like this. Was he "out of fellowship" when they stoned him? Not likely, since he was in the midst of revelation from Jesus Christ! Did he "give up the fight"? Again, no, he fought with his last breath. Was he "believing" to be killed? Show me that! No, sometimes cr@p happens to good people. We have the final victory sealed up, and in the meantime we have the Comforter and the admonition to comfort one another. George

And of course, there are those who would consider Roman Catholicism or most evangelical churches as cults. George

That's the trick in England (and probably other countries in Europe). The price looks reasonable to an American, until you realize it's the price per LITER. $2/liter ~ $7.60/gallon. George

"Worf, you're practically easygoing. What's next? A sense of humor?" "I have a sense of humor! On the Enterprise I was considered to be quite amusing." "That must have been one dull ship." "That is a joke. I get it... it is not funny, but I get it." "Think of it as a challenge." "That's your obsession, Miles, not mine." "Do it for the latinum." "Nice try." "Do it for the satisfaction of the look on Quark's face when he's beaten at a game of tongo by a lowly hyu-mon." "Deal the cards" "So what happened?" "You may not understand..." "Try me." "You were at my wedding... you heard the story of the first two Klingon hearts... how nothing could stand against them... and how they even destroyed the gods that created them. I've heard that story ever since I was a boy...but I never understood it -- really understood it -- until I was standing there in the jungle with my heart pounding in my chest... and I found that even Icouldn't stand against my own heart. I had to go back... and it didn't matter what Starfleet thought or what the consequences were. She was my wife and I couldn't leave her. "Hey... that was almost a smile." "When this mission is over... I'll smile all you want." "Promise?" "Promise." "Then let's finish the mission and get out of here. I can stand... just help me... get my balance...Or... maybe not." "As your captain, it's my duty to tell you that you made the wrong choice. I don't think Starfleet will file any formal charges -- even a secret court-martial would run the risk of revealing too much about their intelligence operations... ...But this will go in your service record... and to be completely honest, you should know that they'll probably never give you a command of your own after this." "I understand." "You're a quick study, doctor." "You mean quick for a hu-mon, don't you?" "I would never say anything so distasteful during a game." "No, you'd wait 'til it was over." "Of course." "A Klingon... why did they have to sent a Klingon?" "I'm a Trill. Does that make you feel any better?" "Are you trying to be funny?" "Not at all. He's the funny one..." "I didn't expect you to surrender so quickly." "Surrender?!" "Bad word." "Very bad." "How are you enjoying your honeymoon? Suffering enough?" "Enough." "Anything I can get for you?" "More pain, less cold." George

Robert Peary? George P.S. For those who didn't get bfh's Latin phrase: Now we must drink!

You were right about Shoot to Kill (Although it's Kirstie Alley) Steel Magnolias Dolly Parton Nine to Five George

Quite correct! I believe the whole quote is translated "All Gaul is divided into three parts, in one of which dwell the Belgians, in another the Aquitani, and in the third those whose language is of the Celts, who are called Gauls by us." Admittedly, my Latin is a little rusty. I do a lot more with Greek these days. Your turn, bfh! George

DS9 is correct, but not the episode. I'll post a couple of other quotes later today. George

"Fiddler on the Roof"? George

Welcome back! George

The miniscule difference in the density of cold vs. warm gasoline will probably not justify trying to gas up in the early morning. (Fewer cars in line, though!) When the price of gas is dropping, it's better to wait until you're almost empty to fill up; when the price is rising, filling up more often saves money (though perhaps not time). A full gas tank (20 gal) weighs about as much as a passenger (140 lb), so you probably get better mileage driving almost on empty. George

"Gallia est omnis divisa in partis tris, quarum unam incolunt Belgae, aliam Aquitani, tertiam qui ipsorum lingua Celtae, nostra Galli appellantur." George

My Science Project Richard Masur Shoot to Kill George

Yes, OTC. Chloraseptic is a brand name. It's available (marketed as a sore throat remedy, primarily -- kills the throat nerves in the same way) as a spray or lozenge. If you put the lozenge between the sore tooth and cheek and let it dissolve, you'll get the most benefit. Oh, and the nerves grow back. George

Zardoz Charlotte Rampling The Verdict George

Thoreau? George

If that were true, I'd probably still be Catholic! George

Indeed. (The Rex Harrison version, not Eddie Murphy.) Take it away, WW. George

Batman Begins Christian Bale The Prestige George P.S. bfh -- good idea to follow up your own post. I have to do that on occasion, to keep the game moving.

First and third clues OK. Not getting what I had in mind for the second, but you may get it yet. George

Until someone says I'm right (or wrong), we wait! George
