(Speaker lines in italics, audience response in bold)
The universe is vast, and dark, and cold.
But we are not.
The laws of physics are indifferent to hope, or desperation, or love.
But we are not.
There is no destiny written for us.
Then we will write our own.
Does anything in the universe care?
Yes! We care! There is light in the world, and it is us!
