I think it's better to have limits. My limits are different from other people's limits. I'm all for freedom, I'm all for people doing what they want.

I guess I'm just a mass of contradictions.

I say: liberate yourself as far as you can, and you have done your part; for it is not given to every one to break through all limits, or, more expressively, not to everyone is that a limit which is a limit for the rest.

He who overturns one of his limits may have shown others the way and the means; the overturning of their limits remains their affair.

Corporate America limits the world to consumerism. Science can limit it to the material world. Even religion limits it to a lot of theories that can explain everything. I think we need cinema to break that apart and remind us that we're not in control, and we don't understand as much as we think do.
