Whatever Works
This Woody Allan film does an amazing job illustrating the role random chance plays in our lives.
"... whatever love you can get and give, whatever happiness you can filtch or provide, every temporary measure of grace -- whatever works! Don't kid yourself, it is by no means up to your human ingenuity, a bigger part of your existence is luck. Christ, you know the odds of your father's one sperm from the billions finding the single egg that made you? Don't think about it or you'll have a panic attack!"
- Boris Yelnikoff, Whatever Works
*Special thanks to my girlfriend Adeline for recommending this film
