Quotes 

• Alien : Mr. Frisby, there are some terms that we cannot relate to our own language. This word, "lie" that you mentioned.

  Somerset Frisby : You mean that anything that anybody tells you just goes without saying that, well, it's the truth? Hence, everything that I told you, you believe?

• Alien : You see, Mr. Frisby, our assignment here was to secure a representative Earth specie, hopefully, the most brilliant we could find. There seems to be no question that your accomplishments are far and away more extensive that any other human being on Earth.

  Somerset Frisby : Mine? Frisby's? Now wait a minute, wait a minute. I'm just an old country boy with a big mouth.

• Alien : Frisby, an incredible specimen. Done everything, knows everything, studied in most of the major universities, holds a doctorate in at least eight fields.
