Across the Universe quotes

  • Jude: What is that place?

    Prankster: The headquarters of the league of spiritual deliverance!

    Dr. Robert: The home of Dr. Gary, another outlaw, like myself. We're navigators, we're aviators, we're eatin' tators, masturbatin' alligators, bombardiers, we got no fears, we don't shed no tears, we're pushin' the frontiers... of transcendental perception. What's weird is, we haven't met yet, on this or any other plane.

    Prankster: Hey doc, he says he won't see you, man.

    Dr. Robert: Why, is he sick?

    Prankster: He just said he's busy.

    Dr. Robert: Did you tell that

    [sniff]

    Dr. Robert: sonofabitch that we drove 3,000 miles to see him? Alright, everybody back on the bus. We're going home, to California.

    Max: Doc, California isn't home to all of us.

    Dr. Robert: What can I say? You're either on the bus, or off the bus.

    [music blast]

    Mr. Kite: In the thing!
