The Adventures of Dod

"I think part of me has already fallen asleep--not because of your stories, they're wonderful.  I just have--ah--a problem with my legs." 

"I thought we had an agreement!  Didn't you sign with your knife?" 

"My pies, Boot! Dilly didn't tell me he was a Coosing....How come I'm the last to hear about these kinds of things? I see he's sporting the ring. That's fantastic!"

"I mean--boingy-boing--you single-handedly caught The Dread.  Why would you suddenly turn foul on us?  How stupid can they be?" 

"I'm serious about bad luck. It's funny until it happens to you..." 

"I'd imagine all sorts of foolish articles will post about me--how I hate noble billies. They'll claim the most absurd things..." 

"Whoa, Zippod! Cool down." 

"Mentioning Boot's father like that was completely heartless and unforgivable.  Only a rock with no emotion whatsoever would concoct the things he said." 

"I'd rather dig ditches at Twistyard than be eating maggot puke here in Driaxom." 

"You putrid, loathing, degenerate snake!" 

"You probably thought they were extinct, didn't you?  It's amazing what you can accomplish if you're one of the Zoots." 

"He's tilted his glossy eyes at the pile of droppings and missed the whole team of mules pulling the cart." 

 "Don't worry, they're up to real action."

"You better hurry, Dod.  You've got to sign in or Mr. Clair won't let you duel--and you're up first in the level-five ring." 

"Our safety?  My little finger!  I think there's a lot they're not saying." 

"He does stuff like that....You ought to come back to Twistyard with us.  It's more fun being a Coosing now that Dod's around..." 

"I guess that's what you get for sleeping in.  You're a link left out of the chain." 

 "Don't forget, you're not alive until you're really living."

 "E-everything you can see from here to L-Lake Mauj is his, and the l-lake is his, too."

"I almost didn't recognize you with a shirt on."
