1->''"Before there was thought, there was this place. One Earth. With a single history. But with the coming of man, came the illusion of free will. And with that illusion, came chaos. With every choice we make, we literally create a world. History branches in two, creating one Earth where we made the choice, and a second where we didn't. That's the secret of the universe, you know. Billions of people, making billions of choices, creating infinite Earths. Some so similar to each other that you could spend a lifetime searching for any distinction. Others so radically different, they defy comprehension."''
2-->-- '''Owlman''', ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueCrisisOnTwoEarths''

4->'''Owlman''': Every decision we make is meaningless because somewhere, on a parallel Earth, we have already made the opposite choice. We're nothing. Less than nothing.\
5'''Superwoman''': How can you say that? We're rich! We're conquerors!\
6'''Owlman''': ''[pointing to a map of the multiverse]'' And here we're poor; we're slaves. And here, our parents never met, so we were never born. Here, the world ended in nuclear war. Here, no fish was brave enough to crawl up on land and humans never evolved. And so on, ad infinitum.

9->''"Like you, I recently learned that ours is but a single dimension in a multiverse of dimensions. Intrigued, I used this very portal to survey them all. Which is when I made a startling, '''[[GoMadFromTheRevelation horrible]]''' discovery. There are not simply eight of you, but...SCORES of you! BEHOLD: a multiverse of accursed '''[[TitleDrop Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!]]'''"''

12->''"Now in each of these {{alternate universe}}s, the reality is different than our own; sometimes only slightly, sometimes quite radically. The point is every possible eventuality exists."''

15->'''Itsuki:''' Only one explanation: We're ''all'' from different versions of Japan.\
16'''Ren:''' Right. And they don't sound pretty much anything alike at all.\
17'''Naofumi:''' So there are parallel worlds with parallel ''[[TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse Japans]]''?\
18'''Motoyasu:''' I thought [[FishOutOfTemporalWater we might just be from different eras]], but it would seem not.

23-->-- ''Series/TheBigBangTheory''
24
25->'''Creator/JohnOliver:''' You've stated that you believe there could be an infinite number of parallel universes. Does that mean that there is a universe out there where I am smarter than you?
26->'''Creator/StephenHawking:''' Yes. [[TakeThat And also a universe where you're funny]].
27-->-- ''Series/LastWeekTonightWithJohnOliver''
28
29->'''Vegeta:''' "The universe" is ''everything.'' How can there be ''more?''\
30'''Whis:''' Heh. It's all a matter of dimensions, Vegeta...
31-->-- ''Anime/DragonBallSuper''
32
33->''"There is not one universe. There are many: A multiverse. We have the technology to travel between universes, but travel is highly restricted and policed. There is not one you. There are many. Each of us exists in present time, in parallel universes. There was balance in the system, but now a force exists who seeks to destroy the balance so he can become [[TitleDrop The One]]."''
34-->-- '''Narrator''', ''Film/TheOne''
35
36->"And a multiverse is... Like, imagine the world you come from. Now imagine that there's a ton of others out there that differ in ways as simple as you being green, to ways so complex you wouldn't believe me if I told you. That's the Multiverse."

41
42->'''Admiral Tranter:''' So you're saying there are two realities; two universes running parallel with each other, with only minute differences, and the ''[[CoolStarship Wildfire]]'' can jump between them?
43->'''Ace Rimmer:''' Why only two, Admiral? Why just an ''alpha'' and a ''beta'' reality? Why not an ''infinite'' number of alternate realities, coexisting simultaneously with each other?
44-->--''Literature/RedDwarf: Backwards''
45
46->''"This universe is only one of an infinite number. Worlds without end. Some benevolent and life giving. Others filled with malice and hunger. Dark places where powers older than time lie ravenous... and waiting."''

52->"The majority view is strongly in favor of Inflation. I think the last 20 or 30 years we've seen huge bandwagons in physics. String Theory is another bandwagon. By and large, these bandwagons have failed. Well, not "by and large." ''Totally'' they have failed to deliver. ... The multiverse is just an example of a bad theory. If you ask, "Can you predict anything?" The answer is no, there's nothing they can predict. "Can you ''accommodate'' anything?" Oh yes, they can accommodate ''everything'', because they have this multiverse! You just find the right place in the multiverse, and it'll look like our universe. It's a remarkably imprecise theory. The amazing thing is people have ''welcomed'' it. They should've flung their hands up! ... String Theory was coming to this picture of a multiverse for totally different reasons to Inflation, but in both cases it was because they are ''bad theories.'' They are not predictive theories."

55->'''Sam:''' How many are there -- how many other worlds or -- or universes or realities or whatever?\
56'''God:''' I don't know. Kinda lost count. Most of them are boring. One's in reverse. In one, there's no yellow. One of them's just all squirrels.

59->'''Leo Messi''': Hey uh, Cristiano? I don't think we're in UEFA anymore. ''[Cristiano Ronaldo turns around and gasps at TheReveal that they're in a universe where The Super League was formed]''
60->'''Cristiano Ronaldo''': I swear if this is a multiverse situation, I am going to be ''so'' pissed!
