What happened here has no meaning... Henry Drummond:

People, love, an idea, just to cling to? You poor slob! You're all alone. When you go to your grave, there won't be anybody to pull the grass up over your head. Nobody to mourn you. Nobody to give a damn. You're all alone. E. K. Hornbeck:
You're wrong, Henry. You'll be there. You're the type. Who else would defend my right to be lonely?
