Quotes12

  • Qohen Leth: Nothing adds up.
  • Joby: No. You've got it backwards, Qohen. Everything adds up to nothing, that's the point.
  • Qohen Leth: What's the point?
  • Joby: Exactly. What's the point of anything?
  • Bainsley: I knew you just seemed just - well, you were lonely.
  • Qohen Leth: You're wrong. We were always alone, never lonely.
  • Qohen Leth: Why would you want to prove that all is for nothing?
  • Management: I never said all is for nothing. I'm a businessman, Mr. Leth, nothing is for nothing. Ex inordinateo veni pecunia.
  • Qohen Leth: What?
  • Management: There's money in ordering disorder. Chaos pays, Mr. Leth.
  • Bob: Did you know that more than 33 different aboriginal tribes believe that the soul resides somewhere in the lower intestinal tract? Absolutely true, but here's the zinger: none of these tribes have any knowledge of each other's existence. Coincidence? Coincidence? Why do you think all these separate peoples got such an idea?
  • Qohen Leth: Dysintery.
  • Bainsley: We'll go somewhere faraway, to a special place, on a tropical island. A real one. Just come with me. I know we connected somehow, you know? I know we did. And you need me. And I need to be needed so bad. Just come with me. You know we can be together for real. Just run away with me.
  • Qohen Leth: No, we can't.
  • Qohen Leth: Are you real, or just in my mind?
  • Management: Doesn't matter at all. You're part of the neural web now.
  • Qohen Leth: [extended silence] ... so there is no answer?
  • Management: That depends on the question.
  • Qohen Leth: *What I'm living for?*
  • Management: That's a good question Mr Leth, posed entirely to the wrong person. You see, it seems you've mistaken me for a considerably higher power. I'm not the source of your call. I'm not God or the Devil, I'm just a man... seeking the truth.
  • Qohen Leth: *What Truth? If... *
  • Management: Turn around and look
  • [points toward black hole imagery]
  • Management: ... That's it. Chaos encapsulated. That's all there is at the end. Just as it was at the beginning.
  • Qohen Leth: Well, there it is then. You've proved the zero theorem.
  • Management: Not quite. Mancom is, as you say, still crunching the data.
  • Qohen Leth: Waiting for The Call. What other reason is there to pick up the phone?
  • Qohen Leth: Another day... another day.
  • Bob: Are you having a good time?
  • Qohen Leth: Approximately
  • Bainsley: Are you here alone?
  • Qohen Leth: We're generally everywhere alone.
  • Bainsley: I love mystery... turns me on.
  • Qohen Leth: What kind of work do you do exactly?
  • Bainsley: I shoot trouble
  • Bainsley: Is that what's inside you? How can you live with that kind of emptiness?
  • Qohen Leth: One day at a time.
