From "Time Bandits"
An exchange between "Evil" and "Henchman" from the movie "Time Bandits:"
Evil: When I have The Map, I will be free. And the world will be different, because I'll have understanding.
Henchman: Understanding of what, Master?
Evil: Digital Watches. And soon I shall have understanding of video cassette recorders and car telephones. And when I have understanding of them, I will have understanding of computers. And when I have understanding of computers, I shall be the Supreme Being! God isn't interested in technology. He knows nothing of the potential of the microchip or the Silicon Revolution. Look how he spends his time; 43 species of parrots! Nipples for men!
Henchman: Slugs
Evil: Slugs! He created slugs! They can't hear, they can't speak, they can't operate machinery! I mean, are we not in the hands of a lunatic?! If I were creating a world, I wouldn't mess around with butterflies and daffodils! I would have started with lasers! 8 a.m.! Day One!
Henchman: I just can't wait for a new technological dawn.
