Niles: What's the last thing you'd like to see before you die?
Holland: The LAST thing?
Niles: I mean, if there was one very last thing you could wish to see before you die, what would it be?
Holland: Listen, if I was dying, I'd be too busy doing just that. And so would you!
Holland Perry: That damn Uncle George! He said he was gonna do it and he did.
Ada: It was only a game. We were playing a game, Doushka, like all the other games that we play. Only the time has come for all the games to stop. It is wrong, you see? Dangerous.
