The quote: "If you want to bake an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe".
Source: Here is a YouTube of it.
Why I like this quote: First of all, it's funny and I like funny. But it also makes a relatively deep point: The universe contains a remarkable amount of order. It took billions of years for it to get that order. When we say "from scratch" we still take huge advantage of the order put into the universe by evolution.
