Ok... as promised, some more Quotes from the true Glenn Holland:

(Remember that these are comments made in the midst of lecture, often with no difference in tone from the legitimate lecture. Very dry.)


1. "Generally people don't come back from the dead, and if they do you don't want to see them because they tend to follow you around, or eat your brains... or have you vote for them."

2. "Egyptians were not just obsessed with death and the afterlife. They were not like a bunch of ancient Goths, walking around depressed all the time."

3. "There is a body of a Neolithic hunter who was found in the Alps, frozen. And scientists can learn a lot from that body about Neolithic hunters who were dumb enough to get lost in the Alps."

4. (While looking for a dry erase board marker) "...I don't want to write 'coffin texts' in red... that seems a little too grotesque."

5. "Psychology is actually 'the study of the soul,' these people (motioning to Psych department) don't know anything ABOUT souls."

6. (On texts written on the inside of coffins) "The mummies must have been buried with a Bic or a flashlight to read them, I guess."

7. "Egyptians saw the milky way as the Heavenly Nile... what we see as candy bars, they see as rivers."

8. "If you run into Osiris, he will be a mummy... make sure you say 'hi'."
