"You're morbid. Quit being morbid." "I can't help it. Sometimes I'm morbid." "After all, no other species that has walked the earth has had the ability to wipe itself out on a global scale." "We've only been around for a few hundred thousand years and mankind already has developed any number of ways to do it. From thermonuclear annihilation to global warming." "I can't help but think our intellect is a strike against us. Sure, tinkering with the atom and becoming industrialized has made our society great, but there's quite a downside."
