These are some of the quotes I have collected over the years that I think are quite good.
Credit is given if the authors name was available.

(In Response to question) I wonder if the Starship Enterprise runs LINUX?

I would say no, just based on the content of error messages. For example, when something unavailable is requested of the computer, the answer is usually: "That information is not available at this time."
If the computer ran Linux, this would probably be: "No idea. Next time use the --guess argument if you want more information."

There is also the fact that anyone using the ship's computer for any length of time gets annoyed with it. This strongly suggests a non-Unix system. Unix is like an intelligent woman. Very difficult to get started with, but blissful once you get established with it. I don't think it's a Microsoft OS, though. If so, the antimatter containment system would crash every time somebody programmed a new recipe into the replicators. I also don't think it's Mac, either. If it were a Mac system, the entire bridge would be clear acrylic with a pedestal in the middle featuring a single button.

Certain passages in several laws have always defied interpretation and
the most inexplicable must be a matter of opinion. A judge of the
Court of Session of Scotland has sent the editors of this book his
candidate which reads, "In the Nuts (unground), (other than ground
nuts) Order, the expression nuts shall have reference to such nuts,
other than ground nuts, as would but for this amending Order not
qualify as nuts (unground)(other than ground nuts) by reason of their
being nuts (unground)."
From the "Guinness Book of World Records", 1973:

Anyone can hold the helm when the sea is calm.

"I'll carry your books, I'll carry a tune, I'll carry on, carry over,
carry forward, Cary Grant, cash & carry, Carry Me Back To Old Virginia,
I'll even Hara Kari if you show me how, but I will *not* carry a gun."
