Martian Quotes:

  • Martian: Hail, Earthling.

    Young Ludwig Wittgenstein: Earthling? I'm a philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein. Who are you?

    Martian: You could call me Mister Green. May I ask you a question; how many toes do philosophers have?

    Young Ludwig Wittgenstein: Ten.

    Martian: Fascinating. That's how many humans have.

    Young Ludwig Wittgenstein: Mister Green, philosophers are humans, and know how many toes they have.

    Martian: Oh dear. Does that mean Martians can't be philosophers?

    Young Ludwig Wittgenstein: Oh, god.

  • [last lines]

    Martian: Hail Chromodynamics, Lord of Quantum. This is Quark, Charm and Strangeness reporting. Concerning the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, deceased.
