Quotable quotes?

We watched WarGames last night. Jill had never seen it, and it had been years since I had. (To be honest, I'm not one to recommend movies - everyone has different tastes - but I think this one is worth renting some time for several reasons, upon which I may or may not explicate.)

Anyway - the quote.

At one point in the movie, the young antagonist is talking to his female friend in his room about this scientist/programmer that he was researching, only to discover that the individual was dead. The following conversation takes place:

JENNIFER: He's dead?
DAVID: Yeah, here's his obituary.
JENNIFER: He wasn't very old.
DAVID: Well, he was prety old. He was 41.
JENNIFER: Oh yeah? Well, that's old.

Guess you have a different outlook on life expectancies if you're a 17-year old back in the early 1980's?

At another point in the movie, a character discusses the extinction of the dinosaurs and the rise of the humans, and then notes that perhaps humans won't be around all that much longer. He says:

FALKEN: And when we go, nature will start again. With the bees, probably.

Nothing deep to say about the bee quote, but it was a random connection to the other movie we rented that Jill wanted to see, The Secret Life of Bees.
