  1. Adams,

    A piggin’ genius.

    “You may think it’s a long way to the chemists, but thats peanuts compared to space. Listen…”

  2. The man was a genius, albeit flawed … but then aren’t all geniuses.

    Who could argue with the following –

    “Bypasses are devices that allow some people to dash from point A to point B very fast while other people dash from point B to point A very fast. People living at point C, being a point directly in between, are often given to wonder what’s so great about point A that so many people from point B are so keen to get there, and what’s so great about point B that so many people from point A are so keen to get there. They often wish that people would just once and for all work out where the hell they wanted to be.”

  7. Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
    (Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy)

    The man was a visionary as well as a genius.

  8. “There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

    There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”

    Douglas Adams, one of my very favourite authors.
