• Doctor in Brooklyn : Why are you depressed, Alvy?

  Doctor in Brooklyn : Something he read, huh?

  Alvy at 9 : [his head still down]  The universe is expanding.

  Doctor in Brooklyn : The universe is expanding?

  Alvy at 9 : Well, the universe is everything, and if it's expanding, someday it will break apart and that would be the end of everything!

  Alvy's Mom : What is that your business?

  [she turns back to the doctor] 

  Alvy's Mom : He stopped doing his homework!

  Alvy at 9 : What's the point?

  Alvy's Mom : What has the universe got to do with it? You're here in Brooklyn! Brooklyn is not expanding!

  Doctor in Brooklyn : It won't be expanding for billions of years yet, Alvy. And we've gotta try to enjoy ourselves while we're here!
