Barney Fife : Boy, you insist on flyin' right in the face of scientific fact, don't ya?
Andy Taylor : Scientific facts?
Barney Fife : There are atmospheric rays which control bodily motions. Now, if a person containing negative or hexin' qualities gets between you and them rays, why, he creates a static that jars any successful motion into an unsuccessful motion and jinxes ya! And *that* is a scientific fact!
Andy Taylor : And that is also the biggest crock of nothin' I ever heard!
Barney Fife : It's guys like you that laughed at Edison, the Wright Brothers, Buzz Fluheart!
Andy Taylor : Buzz Fluheart?
Barney Fife : The man that discovered the scientific fact I was just tellin' ya!

Barney Fife : [chanting for good luck] Fly away, buzzard! Fly away, crow! Way down south where the winds don't blow! Rub your nose and give two winks and save us from this awful jinx!

Barney Fife : Thought I'd heard everything, but I *didn't* hear everything! But I sure am hearin' it now!
