Eleanor: Remember what I said to you when you were going through your mid-life crisis, one earring, red convertible phase?
Michael: You look so stupid.
Eleanor: After that.
Michael: You said that every human is a little bit sad all the time because you know you're gonna die. But that knowledge is what gives life meaning.

There's an X-factor here. A secret sauce that only I truly know how to pour over the juicy steak of this process.
Michael
Looking at Eleanor's life made me realize how different we are. If the system works and we both pass our tests, I don't see any version of eternity where she doesn't get bored of me. I mean, my fake heaven was a six-hundred square foot apartment that was essentially a bookcase and a toilet. And I loved it!
