Playing a Secret Santa game at work and need to figure out who said this quote:

"i'm thinking of donating my body to science, even scientists need a good laugh now and then"

I've googled, bing'd, and asked...but no lucky.

I guessed Roseanne Barr, Janice ****inson, or Joan Rivers but have not found anything to support that guess.

    I think the quote is actually "I'm thinking of leaving my body to science, even scientists need a good laugh now and then"


    But I could be wrong. Can't remember who said it though

  • My guess is Woody Allen (Allan Stewart Konigsberg).

    Yeah...I came across Stephen Wright, Rodney Dangerfield, and Woody Allen too....but their have that "science fiction" tag added to it. The quote I have is pretty exact. Maybe my secret santa got it wrong??
  • Was it George Burns?

    Stephen Wright said "When I die, I'm leaving my body to science fiction." That may be why it came up in your searches. That quote has been bouncing around Twitter, My Space and Facebook for a long time. Good luck trying to narrow it down.
