"Martin Teague: Sir? If you don't mind my asking... why a box? Arlington Steward: Your home is a box. Your car is a box on wheels. You drive to work in it. You drive home in it. You sit in your home, staring into a box. It erodes your soul, while the box that is your body inevitably withers... then dies. Whereupon it is placed in the ultimate box, to slowly decompose. Martin Teague: It's quite depressing, if you think of it that way. Arlington Steward: Don't think of it that way... think of it as a temporary state of being."
"Arlington Steward: If human beings are unable or unwilling to sacrifice individual desires for the greater good of your species, you will have no chance for survival."
