"He gestured Arthur towards a chair which looked as if it had been made out of the ribcage of a stegosaurus.
"It has been made out of the ribcage of a stegosaurus," explained the old man as he pottered about fishing bits of wire or form under tottering pipes of paper and drawing instruments."

"Are you trying to tell me," said Arthur, slowly and with control, "that you originally... made the Earth?"

"Was it?" said Zephod. "Oh well, forget it, then. OK, computer, take us to land."

"You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."

"That's the display department."
"With a torch."
"Ah, well the lights had probably gone."
"So had the stairs."
"But look, you found the notice, didn't you?"
"Yes," (...) It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying Beware of the Leopard."

Tok en liten detour og begynte på Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

"(...) it scores over the older, more pedestrian work in two important respects.
First, it is slightly cheaper; and secondly it has the words DON'T PANIC inscribed in large friendly letters on its cover."

Det er så betryggende og beroligende 😌
