Douglas Adams Quotes
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Adams, Douglas. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Pan Books, 1979, p. 136.
She was often derided by critics for her frumpy appearance and her lack of sex appeal and most people would be sensitive about the subject. But she had a very thick skin and would often turn the tables on our critics with self effacing humor about herself.
Adams is best known as the author of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", which originated in 1978 as a BBC radio comedy before developing into a "trilogy" of five books that sold more than 15 million copies in his lifetime and generated a television series, several stage plays, comics, a computer game, and in 2005 a feature film. Adams's contribution to UK radio is commemorated in The Radio Academy's Hall of Fame. Adams was known as an advocate for environmentalism and conservation, as a lover of fast cars, cameras, technological innovation and the Apple Macintosh, and as a "devout atheist".
