brilliant dialogue

I know I've quoted Ghostbusters before, and I'll probably do so again. But somehow, recent world events have reminded me of this exchange:



Mayor
What do you mean, "biblical"?

Dr Ray Stantz
What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath-of-God type stuff.

Dr. Peter Venkman
Exactly.

Dr Ray Stantz
Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling.

Dr. Egon Spengler
Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes...

Winston Zeddemore
The dead rising from the grave.

Dr. Peter Venkman
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria!
