The Hummingbird Project quotes

  • [first lines]

    Bryan Taylor: How long does it take to drive from Kansas to New York?

    Vincent Zaleski: Uh, two days.

    Bryan Taylor: You wanna do this in 16 milliseconds?

    Vincent Zaleski: Yeah, but round trip.

    Bryan Taylor: We're talking about a lot of money here, Vincent.

    Anton Zaleski: I don't know. Hmm. I think your life would feel exactly as long as someone who lived for 100 years.
