Lt. Coffey: We don't need them. We can't trust them. We may have to take steps. We're gonna have to take steps.

Virgil 'Bud' Brigman: When it comes to the safety of these people, there's me and then there's God, understand?

Lindsey Brigman: Explorer, this is Cab Three, starting our descent along the umbilical. 
'Sonny' Dawson: Roger that, Cab Three. Good luck. 
Lindsey Brigman: Luck is not a factor.

Lindsey Brigman: It's not easy being a cast-iron bitch. It takes discipline, and years of training... A lot of people don't appreciate that.

Alan "Hippy" Carnes: What is all this stuff? 
Ensign Monk: Fluid breathing system, we just got it. You use it when you go really deep. 
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: How deep? 
Ensign Monk: Deep. 
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: *How* deep? 
Ensign Monk: It's classified.

Lindsey Brigman: Coffey, these are the missile hatches, is that right? 
Lt. Hiram Coffey: That's right. It looks like a couple of hatches have sprung. Radiation's nominal. Warheads must still be intact. 
Lindsey Brigman: How many are there? 
Lt. Hiram Coffey: Twenty-four Trident missiles, eight M.I.R.V.s per missile. 
Lindsey Brigman: [after a pause] That's a hundred and ninety-two warheads, Coffey. How powerful are they? 
Lt. Hiram Coffey: The M.I.R.V. is a tactical nuke. Uh, fifty kilotons, nominal yield, say... five times Hiroshima. 
[One Night, listening, mouths "fuck!"]
Lindsey Brigman: Jesus Christ. It's World War Three in a can.

Virgil 'Bud' Brigman: Hippy, you think everything is a conspiracy. 
Alan "Hippy" Carnes: Everything is.

Lindsey Brigman: Whoa! I don't remember someone putting a wall here.

Virgil: [after the aliens call off the tidal wave that would have wiped out humanity] You could've done it. Why didn't you? 
Aliens: [via the water screen, in Bud's typing] Knew this was one way ticket, but you know I had to come. Love you.

Lindsey Brigman: We all see what we want to see. Coffey looks and he sees Russians. He sees hate and fear. You have to look with better eyes than that.

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
