Aston: "Do you like gum?"
Bela: "Why do you ask?"
Aston: "Just like that."
Bela: "You can't just ask a stupid question like that."
Aston: "Why does every conversation has to have some intellectual component in it?"
Bela: "'cause that's what conversations are about -- `informal exchange of ideas'"
Aston: "Will you please stop looking in the dictionary for the definitions? You are not being thorough, just being a pain in the butt. What about a quite, pleasant, pointless chit-chat?"
Bela: "You lost me there."
Aston: "Look, you need to realize that there is life outside work; events that are not experiments; and phenomena that need not be scientific."
Bela: "But every time I try, I ran into that atheist Carmen who asks me to those questions."
Aston: "You mean, Danielle -- she is atheist; Carmen is an apatheist."
Bela: "Now, who has the dictionary tugged under his arm."
Aston: "Whatever!"
Bela: "Anyways, how is squash going? Did you find someone?"
Aston: "Yeah, I am playing with Ellie and Fred. George also drops in sometimes." "They are really good players. I need to work hard."
Bela: "Good luck! With all these deadlines ahead, would you really have time to pursue that?"
Aston: "I have to. I really have to."
Bela: "Just don't kill yourself, its just a game."
Aston: "I know."
Bela: "Oh shit! it is already seven. These dance classes and piano lessons are killing me."
