Mork : I’m trying to fit in here on Earth because these are a very violent, violent people.
Orson : You mean they have wars?
Mork : Oh no, worse than that. Violence is part of their everyday lives. First of all, they slash prices, they drown their sorrows, they punch buttons and they kill time. I’m not even gonna tell you what they do to eggs.
Orson : I had no idea they were so vicious.
Mork : Oh, not only that, they blow up photographs, they hang plants, and I heard one guy telling another guy, “Hey man, you can crash at my place.” And even when they’re finished having a fight and they want to make up, they threaten to bury the hatchet!
Orson : What makes them so violent?
Mork : I don’t know. I think it starts when a baby is born. The first thing a doctor does is hit it. They don’t stand a chance, your immenseness.
You make a good point about his later work overshadowing it. He went on to do some BIG things after that for sure. Pam Dawber… not so much. Just imagine being in that shadow as he blew up after that.
This all just reminds me how much I miss him 😞
