"That's so awesome that the government stopped a would-be terrorist. And right when they're reeling from criticism about that stuff. It's like fate! A magical cosmic symmetry!"

"Tell you one thing: There wouldn't be all this bombing and killing stuff if everyone in the world were either me or my wife."
