No way I’m going digging in Uranus for diamonds.

The market for synthetic gem diamonds is very small.

If there is diamond rain on Uranus and Neptune, maybe there’s diamond hail too.

IMO that's the best thing Dylan ever wrote.The Byrds did a brilliant job with it but Judy Collins’ version is simply sublime.

A bunch of diamonds would probably pay for the trip there and back.

Yes...I love that song. The Byrds did a beautiful job (but the backing tracks were The Wrecking Crew).
Judy Collins has a beautiful voice and is still singing.

Uranus must be one tight sphincter to produce all those diamonds. Now if they can just borrow one of Saturn’s rings to put it on.

The greatest thing about marriage is how you grow with it, all the stuff you learn, the deep *feeling* experience of all the emotions that it engenders; and how you change internally through the intensely personal interaction that it causes you to experience.
I think it’s one of the most deep and enlightening experiences that most humans can have, possibly only rivaled by the experience of parenting and raising a child.
