Life is a Rock*

“It goes like this, Spaceman.  We live on a rock…there ain’t no rhyme, there ain’t no reason…there ain’t no answers! There’s just this!

“And all you can really hope to do is to find a couple of people who make the seventy or eighty odd years we get to live on this sweet swinging sphere remotely tolerable.”
