[JuliaL]

The theory of yes- or no.

Jonathan Harker: Are you saying that Count Dracula is our vampire?
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): Yes!… and no…
Jonathan Harker: Then what are you saying?
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): I’m saying no. But I’m leeeeaning towards yes.
Dr. Seward (Harvey Korman): Then you’re saying yes.
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): No.
Dr. Seward (Harvey Korman): Then you’re saying no.
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): Not necessarily.
Jonathan Harker: You sound dubious.
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): No -I’m positive!
Jonathan Harker: Of what?
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): Of my theory!
Jonathan Harker: And that would be?
Van Helsing (Mel Brooks): The theory of Yes- or no.

Regarding the proposition that getting old sucks, I leeeean toward yes..... or no.
Sucks: Things that didn't hurt at one time now do.
Doesn't suck: You get to laugh at the young for making exactly the same mistakes you made at their ages while pretending that you didn't.
