"I think that um... I think that sex is overrated. I think that people place far too much importance on it, and I think that stuff about women wantin' it just as bad as men is crap. I mean I think that women want it, I just don't think that they want it for the same reason that men think they do."

"[having just seen Ann's videotape] I wasn't going to say anything, 'cause I thought you'd be devastated. But looking at you now. [snicker] Yeah, I fucked Elizabeth. Before your problem. Hell, while you two were going out. She was nothing special. She was good in bed. [beat] She sure could keep a secret. That's about all I can say about her. [after John leaves, Graham goes inside and destroys all the videotapes]"

"Every living person on this planet has their own unique pair of eyes. Each their own universe."

"His use of metaphors, especially those involving eyes, is heavy-handed and obvious. (The title being a prime example.)"

"Cahill spends the entire film bringing a sense of wonder to the desperately rational Ian, and if the film takes on a glow toward the end, that glow feels well-earned."

"I think it's dangerous to play God."

"There is someone there with Sofi's exact iris pattern. The eyes and the brain are connected. If—if the cellular structure in the eye is reoccurring from person to person, then maybe something in the brain carries over as well, like a neurological link. Maybe the eye really is some kind of window to the soul."

"I want you to burn me."

"Steven Yeun — Kenny"

"We're already married in the spiritual world."

"Although the film and the actors keep on looking good, this solemn, soppy, fantasy has nothing to say about science or faith."

"Big ideas can sometimes lead to great motion pictures or, as in the case of I Origins, colossal misfires. A wannabe examination of faith versus science, Mike Cahill's follow-up to Another Earth fails to provide convincing dramatization of his thematic thesis."

"I'm not religious. … Religion is based on scripture written by men thousands of years ago. Those beliefs can't be changed or challenged. They're fixed."
