List of voters for the quote

[Robbie is writing an essay; the Grapdelites pop out of their box] Grapdelite 1: Shouldn't you be hiding us? Grapdelite 2: Can't you see he's thinking? Grapdelite 1: I'm merely reminding him of his responsibility to his father. Now, be quiet! Robbie: Hey, I'm trying to write a paper here! Okay? Grapdelite 2: We've offended him! Grapdelite 1: What's your paper about? Grapdelite 2: Oh, it's none of our business! Robbie: It's a social studies paper, and it's not going very well. [shows the Grapdelites his paper] Grapdelite 1: "Why dinosaurs rule the Earth? We're big." Robbie: Yeah, that really bites, doesn't it? Grapdelite 2: Well, there's certainly no denying that size allows the dinosaur to have almost unlimited benefits. Grapdelite 1: Of course, the duality of nature dictates that for every benefit, there must be a cost. Grapdelites: [together] Don't you agree? Robbie: Oh, well, I, uh... Grapdelite 1: We've lost him. Grapdelite 2: So try an illustration. Grapdelite 1: Of course. [to Robbie] Why is it good to be big? Robbie: Well, we get to eat whoever we want. Uh, no offense. Grapdelite 1: Oh, none taken. Grapdelite 2: However, if we don't plan for the future, there won't be anymore food. That would be the cost. Robbie: What do you mean "no more food"? There's always more, that's what "more" means. Grapdelite 1: Oh, dear... [pulls out a bunch of grapes from the box] Grapdelite 2: Imagine that these are all the grapes in the world. Robbie: Um, yeah, so? Grapdelite 1: Now, suppose that you eat all the grapes. Robbie: Hm, okay. [eats the grapes in one gulp] Okay, now what? Grapdelite 2: Now, suppose you want grapes tomorrow. Robbie: Well, I'll go the market and get some. Grapdelite 2: But those were all the grapes in the world. Robbie: Well, then I'll have to eat something else. Grapdelite 1: Oh, well, you rule the world. Grapdelite 2: A world without grapes. Robbie: So you're saying that if we eat them all, there won't be anymore. Grapdelite 1: I think he understands... Robbie: Ha! I can stretch that to 500 words easy! Grapdelite 1: Or maybe he doesn't.. Robbie: You guys can help me with my homework everyday, or at least until Mom and Dad's anniversary.
