I found this transcript of the segment...
“The universe may have begun in a state of perfect symmetry. . . .
Perfect symmetry may be beautiful, but it is sterile; perfectly symmetrical space means nothingness. . . .
It may even be that we owe the very origin of our universe to the imperfection of the breaking of the absolute symmetry of absolute emptiness. There is even a theory to this effect.
It’s called vacuum genesis and it suggests that the universe began as a single particle arising from an absolute vacuum.
Curious as it may seem, this idea violates none of the known laws of physics. We have seen how virtual particles come into existence all the time from a vacuum and then fall back into non-existence. . . .
It’s just possible that there might have been absolutely nothing out of which came a particle so potent that it could blossom into the entire universe. It is not very likely, but then it only had to happen once. Out of nothingness could have come the spark of genesis.”

Very pretty.
Glad it works for you.
On the other hand the whole thing could of popped out in a fart from Beezlebub.
It would only have had to happen once!
