"If aliens come and invade this planet, we have to fucking fight for our survival as a human race. The meeting's going to be held in New York City and we're going to serve them Italian food. It's just what it is. Those are the two best things we have to offer as the Americans. Italian food in New York City." — [Unnamed Speaker]
