Another modest 1000 word goal today of which so far 300 600 done.

Quotes I use so often I don't even notice

1. "I suppose I'm lucky I'm still alive." - blooper
2. "I don't think we'll pursue that line of enquiry." - Tony Hancock
3. "I bemoan mine outcast state" - Sonnet 29 ("When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes"), via TNG's The Measure of a Man.
4. "It's the ghastly truth, Mr Data." - TNG again: Deja Q.
5. "Complete randomness". From a recounting of a Mary Sue fic into which a note to the ficcer's schoolmate had been inexplicably inserted.
6. "Just a moment - I'll have it in a minute." - blooper from ST:TOS, Elaan of Troyius.

I'll add more as I spot them in my day to day chatter.
