Quotes
Capt. Barney Miller: Crawling into a hole with a machine gun and a years supply of powdered eggs may be survival but it sure as hell ain't living. And personally, if society is going, I'd just as soon go with it. Because I do not relish the thought of starting all over again with people like you.
