"Standing beneath a tortoise under an elephant under the world." Reference to the Hindu's view that the world rested upon an elephant, and the elephant rested upon a tortoise.

When someone asked what the tortoise is resting upon, an old lady replied "You're very clever, young man, very clever, but it's turtles all the way down!"

"Superman. Superman. Superman." is a reference to Nietzche.
