Stupid Good/Quotes

"''A pair of savage bloodhounds are a-thirsting for the kill.

If one dog fails to eat me up, the other surely will.

They're gaining fast, with open jaws,

You enter -- and we pause --

"Darling, what did you do to provoke these dogs?"''"

- Goldilocks, "The Beast In You"

""Oh, the poor wretch, he has a faulty gun... he's accidentally shot me five times! Oh, how I love him!""

- Good Kryten, Red Dwarf

""The contrast attains its maximum when, in accordance with the logical consequences of slave-morality, a shade of depreciation—it may be slight and well-intentioned—at last attaches itself to the “good” man of this morality; because, according to the servile mode of thought, the good man must in any case be the safe man: he is good-natured, easily deceived, perhaps a little stupid, un bonhomme. Everywhere that slave-morality gains the ascendancy, language shows a tendency to approximate the signiﬁcations of the words “good” and “stupid.”""

- Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good And Evil
