Arthur:
A... a... actually, I rather liked it.
Jeltz:
Hmm?
Ford:
Yeah. That's good. Run with it.
Jeltz:
Hmmm?
Arthur:
Uh, some of the words I didn't understand, but I found the imagery quite effective.
Jeltz:

Arthur:
Well, uh, yes, interesting rhythmic devices, which seemed to counterpoint the underlying metaphor of the humanity of, of the poet's soul.
Jeltz:
So what you're saying is, I write poetry because underneath this mean, callous, heartless exterior, I just want to be loved?
Ford:
[whispers]
Yes, yes, yes.
Arthur:
Yes, yes, yeah, please.
[other Vogons ooh-ing and aah-ing]

Either die in the vacuum of space,
00:00:06.025 --> 00:00:11.001
or tell me what you thought of my poem.
00:00:12.065 --> 00:00:16.006
Actually, I rather liked it.
00:00:16.075 --> 00:00:18.007
- Hmm?
- Yeah.
00:00:18.008 --> 00:00:21.005
That's good. That's
good, Arthur. Run with it.
00:00:21.006 --> 00:00:24.000
Some of the words I didn't understand,
00:00:24.001 --> 00:00:27.005
but I found the imagery quite effective.
00:00:28.004 --> 00:00:29.007
Continue.
00:00:29.008 --> 00:00:33.005
Well, yes, interesting rhythmic devices,
00:00:33.006 --> 00:00:36.000
which seemed to counterpoint
00:00:36.001 --> 00:00:38.008
the underlying metaphor
of the humanity of...
00:00:38.009 --> 00:00:42.001
- Vogonity!
- Vogonity, sorry, Vogonity.
00:00:42.002 --> 00:00:44.055
Of the poet's soul.
00:00:48.025 --> 00:00:52.035
So, what you're saying is,
00:00:52.045 --> 00:00:55.997
I write poetry, because
00:00:55.015 --> 00:00:59.005
underneath this mean,
callous, heartless exterior,
00:00:59.006 --> 00:01:03.055
I just want to be loved?
00:01:04.001 --> 00:01:06.001
Yes, yes, yes.
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:09.001
Yes, yes, yeah, please.
00:01:15.994 --> 00:01:16.001
Throw them off the ship!
00:01:21.008 --> 00:01:24.997
All right! All right!
00:01:24.001 --> 00:01:27.007
Resistance is useless!
00:01:30.001 --> 00:01:34.001
Shut up! Get a job! Wash your filthy hands!
