Chaos Quote by Walter White
“The universe is random. It's not inevitable. It's simple chaos. It's subatomic particles in endless, aimless collision. That's what science teaches us, but what is this saying? What is it telling us, when on the very night that this man's daughter dies, it's me who's having a drink with him? How can that be random?”

![“I'm saying that I lived too long. You want them to actually miss you [...] I truly believe there exists some combination of words.
