QUOTES
Scott: “In order to get to freedom, you have to be open to change if you are at all trapped.”
Sophie: “They're seeing that change is coming. They don't want change to come, and they would rather devour the next generation and destroy what is coming, then embrace that change.”
Sophie: “There has always been conflict and strife. Whether it's a class based issue, or race based, or sexuality, or gender, or whatever it is, there's always been this conflict. But when we look at it through the lens of nostalgia, we don't see what is real. We see what we want to see.”
Scott: “Nostalgia is itself a toxic myth that we tell ourselves, because like I said, it never is the whole story. It isn't something that exists now. And nostalgia can be easy and fun to feel. But it is something that separates us from the truth.”
Sophie: “Judging somebody by the quality of their actual character, as opposed to just what they're telling you they're about is important.”
Sophie: “The past can't hurt us, because it's already happened. The future can hurt us, because it hasn't happened yet, and so some people just think, let's just keep doing what we've always been doing, because it's working. Even though the longer we do that, the more we realize it's not working.”
