Dr. Brainard Quotes:

  • Dr. Brainard: You were right about the electric flea collar. The extension cord was a bad idea.

  • [during the conference; several audience members leave]

    Wayne Szalinski: ...And given that my machine can substantially reduce the size of bulky payloads and fuel supplies, the savings to the space program would be staggering.

    Professor Frederickson: [puzzled at Wayne's invention] Mr. Szalinski, are you trying to tell me that suddenly size is no longer relative?

    Wayne Szalinski: That's right, Professor Frederickson; and with the amount of space in any given object, we can thereby shrink the object.

    Professor Frederickson: Uh-huh, where's your proof?

    Wayne Szalinski: When Einstein came up with the Atomic Bomb, did they ask him to prove that it worked?

    Professor Frederickson: You, Mr. Szalinski, are hardly Einstein.

    [audience laughs]

    Wayne Szalinski: I picked a name.

    Professor Frederickson: You have, however, managed to shrink one thing: the size of this audience!

    [to the rest of the audience]

    Professor Frederickson: Gentlemen, ladies, I don't know about you; but I'm going to lunch.

    [Professor Frederickson and the rest of the audience get up to leave; Dr. Brainard approaches the stage and stops Wayne]

    Dr. Brainard: Pardon me. Wayne. Wayne.

    Wayne Szalinski: Oh, hi, Dr. Brainard.

    Dr. Brainard: Don't take it too hard, Wayne. It'll take time to convince people without proof.

    Wayne Szalinski: I appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

    Dr. Brainard: [as the two leave the conference room] By the way, you were right about the electric flea collar: the extension cord was a bad idea.
