lateralus's Journal: Another gem from c.l.c

On January the 16th, 2004 I saw the following sig on comp.lang.c

"Derk Gwen http://derkgwen.250free.com/html/index.html
Elvis was an artist. But that didn't stop him from joining the service
in time of war. That's why he is the king, and you're a shmuck."

Uh, that's from Dogma...

[WIAKywbfatw]

It's what Serendipity (Salma Hayek) tells Azrael (Jason Lee) when Azrael - a former muse who was thrown out of Heaven by God for not fighting for him in the war against Satan and his followers - claims the reason why he didn't fight was because he was an artist.

Here's the IMDB listing for Dogma [imdb.com] and here's the IMDB memorable quotes page [imdb.com] for that film.

Dogma is a great film. If you haven't already seen it then go rent it now. Better still, buy it, because it's a great movie.
