“Does anything ever happen without a reason?” – Katie
“There must be some events. Random events.” – Lily
“Name a random event. Take a moment. Think about it. And then name one.” – Katie
“A coin flip.” – Lily
“A coin flip is not a random event. It’s a complex event. How hard was the coin flipped? What was the weight of the coin? The air resistance? The temperature of the room? The angle it landed on the table?” – Katie
“Okay, not a coin flip. But some things are random.” – Lily
“Then name one.” – Katie
“Selection.” – Lily
“Selection of what?” – Katie
“Selecting from things that are all the same.” – Lily
“What things are all the same?” – Katie
“Objects. Identical copies of a book at a bookstore.” – Lily
“You chose the one beneath the top of the pile because it had been handled less. Meteors landing. Roulette wheels spinning. Misfortunes suffered. They can all be unraveled. You can’t name a random event because there are no random events.” – Katie

“The box contains us. The box contains everything. And inside the box, there’s another box. Ad infinitum; ad nauseam. Uh oh.”

“Man in Black: Aw, yeah, cue the waterworks. About time you realized the futility of your situation.
Dolores Abernathy: I'm not crying for myself. I'm crying for you. They say that great beasts once roamed this world. As big as mountains. Yet all that's left of them is bone and amber. Time undoes even the mightiest of creatures. Just look at what it's done to you. One day you will perish. You will lie with the rest of your kind in the dirt. Your dreams forgotten, your horrors effaced. Your bones will turn to sand. And upon that sand a new god will walk. One that will never die. Because this world doesn't belong to you or the people who came before. It belongs to someone who has yet to come.”
― Westworld [Season 1]
