“I haven't come across any recent new ideas in film that strike me as being particularly important and that have to do with form. I think that a preoccupation with originality of form is more or less a fruitless thing. A truly original person with a truly original mind will not be able to function in the old form and will simply do something different. Others had much better think of the form as being some sort of classical tradition and try to work within it.” ThinkingTryingMindPersonsImportantIdeasDifferentAbleFilmFormHavensTraditionFunctionOriginalsStrikesOriginalityNew IdeasPreoccupation Author:Stanley Kubrick
“The basic function of the government everywhere in all times, whatever title it adopts and whatever its origin and organisation may be, is always that of oppressing and exploiting the masses, of defending the oppressors and the exploiters: and it's principal, characteristic and indispensable instruments are the police agent and the tax-collector, the soldier and the gaoler - to whom must be invariably added the trader in lies, be he priest of schoolmaster, remunerated or protected by the government to enslave minds and make them docilely accept the yoke.” MindMayGovernmentLyingAcceptingTaxesMassFunctionPoliceInstrumentsSoldierAll TimeAgentsTitlesCharacteristicsPriestsProtectedPrincipalIndispensableOrganisationCollectorsOppressorsYokeTraders Author:Errico Malatesta
