Quotes[]
- Harry Vanderspeigle: I can't kill everyone on Earth with an empty stomach.
....
- Harry Vanderspeigle: It's unfortunate I have to kill everyone and leave here. The warmth of spring is just arriving.
....
- Mike Thompson: I told her that was probably some meat in there that looked like you. Like a frozen pig or something.
- Harry Vanderspeigle: I am more handsome than a pig.
- Mike Thompson: Oh, me, too. Yeah, man, I'm probably somewhere between a pig and a dolphin. You know, that dolphin, that's a fine-ass animal.
....
- Harry Vanderspeigle: Everyone has to die. It is the normal cycle of life for being across the entire universe. Some may live longer than others, but every organism comes into being, and then ceases being. The animals know this. They live in harmony with the Earth, as it was meant to be. Everyone I kill with my device is going to die anyway. At least I'm killing them for a good reason. It's different for humans. Humans kill because they know they're small, insignificant, weak. And killing makes them feel strong, even if it's just for a moment. And when humans are smart, they may even get away with murder. Of course, no being really gets away with anything. The universe knows what you have done, even if nobody else does. And the universe will restore balance, one way or another. Humans have a word for this. They call it "karma".
