charlie: "i think you're missing the big picture."
kip: "what big picture?"
charlie: "the universe."
kip: "what about the universe?"
charlie: "well, the universe is a pretty big place."
kip: "yea. it's infinite, theoretically."
charlie: "right, which means there's probably life on other planets."
kip: "not life like we think, but yeah. probably at least single-cell organisms."
charlie: "well, see, that's my whole point. i mean you could've been born a single-cell organism on the planet Zortex. in fact, given the odds, it's probably more likely, but you weren't. you were born a human being. and not just any human being in the history of human beings, but a human being that gets to be alive today. that gets to listen to all kinds of music, that gets to eat food from every culture, that gets to download porn off the internet. so really, you have everything to live for."
