Memorable quotes..

these quotes might not originate from these shows, documentaries, drama, anime, etc but I heard them while watching it.. so I thought I share them here..

From Karas (anime)
"It's lonely not being remembered.."



From The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of Politics of Fear (documentary)
"... Whilst the 20th century was dominated between a conflict between a free-market Right and a socialist Left, even though both of those outlooks had their limitations and their problems, at least they believed in something, whereas what we are seeing now is a society that believes in nothing. And a society that believes in nothing is particularly frightened by people who believe in anything, and, therefore, we label those people as fundamentalists or fanatics... "
by Bill Durodie, Director , International Centre For Security Analysis , Kings College

"But for the neo-conservatives, religion was a myth, like the myth of America as a unique nation that they had promoted in the Cold War. Strauss had taught that these myths were necessary to give ordinary people meaning and purpose, and so ensure a stable society..."



From Sicko by Michael Moore
".. a society is judged by the way it treats its weakest and underprivileged.."
