Some people get depressed when they find out how huge the universe is... What is the big deal about bigness? A cow is much bigger than you, but it is a ridiculous animal and you are a valuable person. You know it's a cow. It doesn't know anything. it just stands there eating grass (grass!) and mooing. And if it were bigger, that would only make it more ridiculous.
