              Try not to scream at the CEO and frighten the entire IT department. And good luck. :)

                I believe you are thinking of "A Town called Eureka" - Fring had "Massive Dynamic"

                If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

                                  That is the most polite way I have ever heard/read that expression uttered/written.
