It would just be machinery fulfilling its cosmic design. It would just be a big, dumb food processor. But since nothing seems to make sense, when you find something or someone that does, it's euphoria. In all this randomness and this pandemonium, you and Chidi found each other, and you had a life together. Isn't that remarkable?” (Mads)

Just explain again what it is and I’ll want it.” Wendi: “You can’t do it for me. You’ve got to want it for yourself.” Eddie: “Then I’ll want it for myself if that’s what you want.”

That’s a problem for me, Guerin, because every time you look at me I’m 17 again and I forget that the last 10 years even happened and then you look away and I remember all over again and it almost kills me every time.” Michael: “I never look away, not really.” (Mads)
