"I think that a hat which has a little cannon that fires and then goes back inside the hat is at least a decade away."
"I wish I had a kryptonite cross, because then you could keep both Dracula AND Superman away."
"If I ever get real rich, I hope I'm not real mean to poor people, like I am now."
"If you ever crawl inside an old hollow log and go to sleep, and while you're in there some guys come and seal up both ends and then put it on a truck and take it to another city, boy, I don't know what to tell you."
"If you go flying back through time, and you see somebody else flying forward into the future, it's probably best to avoid eye contact."
