Atom Egoyan

The real Antichrist is he who turns the wine of an original idea into the water of mediocrity.

Demosthenes

To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.
Mikhail Bakunin
