“Well, I'm not going to be singing about lollipops because I no longer relate to lollipops.”
Hilary Duff (1987) American actress and singer
“The point is, your request for a lawyer comes about two hundred years too late to be meaningful. The verbalisms lag behind the facts. Nevertheless, you shall have a lawyer—or a lollipop, whichever you prefer, after I am through questioning you. If I were you, I’d take the lollipop. More nourishing.”
— Robert A. Heinlein, book Between Planets
