The Improbability Principle

"You’re pretty harsh with people who believe that there’s some kind of magic or divine intervention that makes these coincidences happen. Do you think that this takes the whimsy out of strange occurrences? 
All I’m doing is saying, Look, you can explain these things using natural laws. Whether it takes the whimsy out if it — I don’t think so. I don’t think it takes the magic away — the psychological magic, I mean. I think the wonder is still there."
