What an existential a roller coaster. Here’s my fav quote:
“At the end of time, a moment will come when just one man remains. Then the moment will pass. Man will be gone. There will be nothing to show that we were ever here … but stardust. The last man, alone with God”
-Captain Pinbacker (Sunshine 2007)
One of my favorites from Mass Effect 3:
Javik: Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters.
Shepard: ...
Javik: The silence is your answer.

“Oh, child. The world is monstrous at times, and there are those who would have you believe that you are terrible by association.”
“I am.”
“No. For you see, it flows the other direction. You are not worse for your association with the world, but it is better for its association with you.”
.
“Do you wish,” Wit asked, “that you could go back to not being able to see?”
“No,” she whispered.
“Then live. And let your failures be part of you.”
.
"Find the balance. Accept the pain, but don’t accept that you deserved it.”
