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!"

I remember and that's not it. Think animation.

Older than any of those. Kent has the right gender for the character.
To repeat the quote I gave, it's:
"That's the same character analysis you got from your last Chinese fortune cookie!"
This should help: The character who spoke that sentence preceded it with "Why, Fred, it's you!"

Abin has it. Sorry for the delay in responding. It was spoken by Wilma to Fred.
You can post another, Abin, or let this game go.

It was not the Doctor [Either as in the lead character of Dr. Who or otherwise]. I suggest you play this in a similar way to the "thinking of an animal"/"where am I?"/etc threads and narrow it down before going for a guess
