But I've had a lot of time to think about this, and if you ask me, most people underestimate eyes. For a start they're powerful. They have range. You focus on someone thirty metres away, through a whole bunch of people, and they know you're looking at them. What other bit of human anatomy can do that?

The author reflects on the underestimated power of the eyes, emphasizing their unique ability to connect people across distances. The eyes can focus on someone far away, even in a crowded space, and that person can sense the gaze directed at them. This highlights the significant role eyes play in human interaction and communication.

This insight suggests that eyes are not just organs for vision; they are pivotal in forming connections and conveying emotions. The ability to focus on someone and have them notice speaks to the depth of non-verbal communication that exists between individuals, which is often overlooked in daily life.

Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
