The Ultimate Question, part 272

The Ultimate Question, part 271

Kutner: "God gave the Church and the kid free will. Their exercise of that free will hurt you, means you're just a victim of God's gift to mankind."
Daniel: "Oh yeah, God wants life to have meaning. Life's meaningless without free will. With free will, there's already suffering. So God wants suffering. I got tired of that argument before I even finished saying it."

The Ultimate Question, part 270

""What about you?" he (Tesseract) asked, his words not much more than a mumble. "Regrets?"
   "Many," Skulduggery said.
   Tesseract's breath rattled in his chest. "That's the good thing about living. You get to make up for
   past mistakes."
   "Or make brand-new ones.""
