I love this quote and it just seems fitting post it here:

I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love...Yes, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence. I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women...women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake...but I do deny them my essence.

General Jack Ripper - 'Dr Stranglove - Or: How I learned to stop worrying and LOVE the bomb'!

One of the better Kubrick films and Peter Sellers is great in all his parts.

Keep your essence pure - only distilled water, avoid fluoride, and keep your 'essence' away from woman who feel its power and seek to take it from you.

Unlike General Ripper, I am happy to share my precious bodily fluids . . .

Great movie!

Bonus question - what major character in Star Wars made his film debut in 'Dr. Stranglove'?

I saw a Kubric documentery that said after the movie came out the Air Force came to visit and wanted to know where they got their intel from concerning the inside of the B52, because at the time the movie was made, the 52's interior was still supposed to be classified? They did such a good job of guessing that parts they didn't know that the government thought there was a leak somewhere.

That happens more than you'd expectt. I know John Campbell got his collar felt over a story about nuclear bombs Astounding published during the war...
