Straker words of wisdom

Jason Sweet-2
For the benefit of this group, I have written down some of the great quotesspoken by Straker.  Forgive me if I've left any out but here they are.   Enjoy!
 
(1) "What life is all about are the things we never say."  (Sub Smash)
(2) "Bloody-mindedness.  It built this planet!"  (Timelash)
(3) "The nearer you are to an explosion, the better your chances."  (Sound of Silence)
(4)  "It's fear of the unknown which helps us to keep alert.  And when and if the answers do
       come, it will be fear that will help us recognize it."   (E.S.P.)
(5) "Sometimes being wrong right is harder!"  (Mindbender)
(6)  Staker to Foster:  I've solved quite a few problems by just sitting around, I suggest you
      try it yourself sometime."  (Conflict)
(7)  "If there is one thing I hate . . . it's eating dinner alone."  (Responsibility seat)
(8)  "The older you get, the more precious life becomes."  (Sub Smash)
(9)  "Everyone has problems - some more important than others."  (Court Martial)
(10) "Always check out a convention hall before a conference."   (E.S.P)
(11)  My personal favorite:  "Don't ever judge a situation by the end of a conversation."

the Strakerism I always liked was "his chances have just improved - they must be down to a million to one"
