*** Government backbencher, Dr. David Dyer: -- "For us to think we can turn this thing over and go back to an agricultural society and live in a symbiotic way with our environment is foolhardy.'' *** On the Budget debates, Shadow Environment Minister, Mr. Julian Hall: -- "These debates are vacuous experiences in futility.'' *** In reply to a question by Mr. Hall, Environment Minister Mrs. Ann Cartwright DeCouto: -- "Everyone has their idea of Bermuda's image. For the Honourable Member to say the Government should define Bermuda's image is the height of drivel.'' *** Mrs. Lois Browne Evans urging the Hon. David Saul to follow her in changing phrases like "the black hole of Calcutta'': -- "I want him to stop calling everything bad `black'.'' *** The Hon. Sir John Sharpe asking for understanding on cuts in Police manpower: -- "I will make a deal with the Opposition party. If they will not chivvy me too much about reductions this year, I will not remind them too often of their demands for reductions in previous years.'' *** Mr. Julian Hall on the campaign for gay rights: -- "There is much prejudice which we unnecessarily bring to bear on people by the nature of their sexual orientation. Bermuda is either going to arrive at the 20th century in the 20th century or it is not, and to the extent to which it does not we're all the worse off.''
