I started the Quotes without Context thread in the Mission Monitor board and while posting to it, I thought it could also be a great game.

The way it works. The first poster posts a quote. It should be from a famous person or a popular movie/TV/comic book/etc. (nothing obscure) The next poster to correctly guess the source gets to post the next quote.

Starting with the quote I posted today:

"As a small child in England, I had this dream of going to Africa. We didn't have any money and I was a girl, so everyone except my mother laughed at it. When I left school, there was no money for me to go to university, so I went to secretarial college and got a job."

No takers? Hint: this is a quote from a person (as opposed to a movie, tv show, etc.)

Good guess, but wrong. Africa is a major clue. Also this woman is still (as of this post) among the living.

Yes, the quote is from Ms. Jane Goodall.


Feel free to carry on or to let this game die.

I was going to let it go, but I guess we can try it again:

"That's the same character analysis you got from your last Chinese fortune cookie!"
