“My mind is just as open as it ever was, professor. But it's a scientific mind, and there's no place in it for superstitions.”

Context: The Tick comes to mind. … that was just my favorite thing ever, and it was so smart and clever, and I loved it. I felt honored to get to step into the shoes of the Tick, and it just didn’t get love…not from the network, you know. The network killed it. It’s had a pretty fantastic after life on DVD, but it could have been a great series if they decided they wanted to spend any money at all back at the time. It became all about reality TV for them. They discovered they could spend very little money and get huge numbers.

C'est une des superstitions de l'esprit humain d'avoir imaginé que la virginité pouvait être une vertu.
