Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

From Colombia, another great way at controlling the bad behavior of the populace:
Another innovative idea was to use mimes to improve both traffic and citizens' behavior. Initially 20 professional mimes shadowed pedestrians who didn't follow crossing rules: A pedestrian running across the road would be tracked by a mime who mocked his every move. Mimes also poked fun at reckless drivers. The program was so popular that another 400 people were trained as mimes.
Theodosia: I wonder what the life expectancy is for Colombian mimes.

From Bitches:
sj: Does anyone have any cures for looking like death? Because I think it is a little early for him to see me looking this awful.
erikaj What? Are you pale, or? Of all people, me, having to ask what death looks like.
