Quotes

(Closing Narration)
Narrator: Message found in a bottle. Sender Unknown. Still alive or long dead. The last of his species or a traveler marooned on alien shores. Perhaps in the end all that matters is this: that even to the loneliness there is an end and for those who are lonely enough, long enough... a message cast adrift on the darkest beaches of the Twilight Zone. (edit)
Man on the Beach: 'There is in certain living souls a loneliness unspeakable. So great it must be shared as company is shared by lesser beings. Such a loneliness is mine and know by this that in immensity there's one lonelier than you'. And it is addressed to the loneliest one. (edit)
