Snoopy Quotes

“Only in math can you buy sixty cantaloupes and no one asks what the hell is wrong with you.”
― Charles M. Schulz

“My mind reels with sarcastic replies!”
― Charles M. Schulz, The Complete Peanuts, 1963-1964

“as Schulz himself has pointed out, Snoopy is capable of being 'one of the meanest' members of the entire Peanuts cast ... he is lazy, he is a 'chow-hound' without parallel, he is bitingly sarcastic, he is frequently a coward, and he often becomes quite weary of being what he is basically -- a dog. He is, in other words, a fairly drawn caricature for what is probably the typical Christian.”
― Robert L. Short, The Gospel According to Peanuts

“Pourquoi les aiguilles des horloges effectuent-elles le tour d’un cadran au lieu de monter et descendre le long d’une colonne, comme le mercure d’un thermomètre ? On aurait moins le sentiment de tourner en rond. Bien sûr, les secondes n’en finissent jamais de mourir au musée du monde, et le billet d’entrée n’est pas valable éternellement, mais enfin, vous connaissez ce dessin de Charles Schulz ? Charlie Brown et Snoopy sont assis sur un ponton, au bord de l’eau. « Nous allons tous mourir un jour », se désole Charlie Brown. Et Snoopy lui répond : « Mais pas lors des autres jours. » Il circule une traduction moins littérale, mais plus exacte du propos de Snoopy : « Oui, mais tous les autres jours, nous allons vivre. » C’est la version que je préfère. Ce n’est pas parce qu’il est impossible de faire reculer le temps qu’il faut renoncer à casser la gueule aux chronomètres.”
― Fabien Maréchal, L'Attendeur (de Première classe)
