Skinner: Ah, There's Nothing More Exciting Than Science.

HomeFortune CookiesThe Simpsons

Skinner: Ah, there's nothing more exciting than science. You get all
the fun of sitting still, being quiet, writing down numbers,
paying attention...[chuckles] Science has it all.
Bart: Is that the telescope we're going to be looking through?
Skinner: Yes, but you won't be looking through it: I forbid it, heh heh.
But you don't _need_ a telescope to enjoy astronomy, Bart:
there are all the constellations you've heard so much about.
[pointing] There's Orion, the swan, the chariot race --
Bart: Why don't they look anything like their names?
Skinner: Well, you do have to use your imagination. Look: there's the
three wise men. [points to Curly, Larry, and Moe]
-- Wise at slapstick, maybe, "Bart's Comet"
