“Chief of security : They have a tank! How did they get a tank up here?”

“Don't worry chief,"said foaly,"It's like riding a unicorn,you never forget.”

“Hey, if you can't remember, don't worry about it. I'm having a few memory problems myself in this place. Little things like how long I've been here, what my purpose in life is, which feet to put my shoes on. Stuff like that.”

“So, what did you get for me?"Angeline paused for a beat. "Jeans.""What?" croaked Artemis."And a T-shirt.”

“Let's save some time here. I grow weary of your clumsy bluffs. In the case of an abduction, the LEP will send a crack Retrieval team to get back what has been lost.. You have done so. Excuse me while I titter. Crack team? Honestly. A Cub-Scout patrol armed with water pistols could have defeated them.”

“Artemis: Holly, how did you find me?Holly: Oh, I saw a huge explosion and wondered: now, who could that be?”

“A CD. How quaint. We have these in museums.”
