Michael Crichton | TV captures attention, people spend their lives staring at screens | Looker (1981) director commentary | 2007 | 0:04:40 | 0:05:27 | ||
The television can capture attention in a way, and take you away from real life. I think it's become more true as a quality of human attention, that not necessarily so much for television, but I sometimes think that more and more of humankind spends their days looking at screens. Meanwhile, kids are neglected, spouses are neglected, relationships, families, everything's neglected, we're looking at the screen. And whether it's the internet now, or whether it's DVD's, iPods, whatever it is, we're not, we're not in the present; we're in the image. | |||||||

Timothy Busfield and Ken Olin, actors; Joseph Dougherty, writer; Tom Moore, director | Season 2, episode 13 | thirtySomething | 1989 | 0:21:57 | 0:22:23 | ||
There's a price, no matter what you do, there's going to be a price. So, you know what you do? You find out what's important and you make boxes. And in this box, you have what it takes to work with somebody like Miles, and in this box, you have what you take home to Janey and to Hope, that's how you get through. So, that's the key to happiness, a little self-induced schizophrenia? ... You want to have a life here, today, then pick your fights and learn to compromise. | |||||||
Ricky Gervais | You don't need everyone on the planet to like you | Time Interview | 2007 | 0:22:27 | 0:22:45 | ||

Timothy "Speed" Levitch | The grid plan | The Cruise | 1998 | 0:22:51 | 0:23:36 | ||
...By saying that everyone likes the grid plan, you're saying I'm going to relive all the mistakes my parents made. I'm going to identify and relive all the sorrows my mother ever lived through. I will propagate and create dysfunctional children in the same dysfunctional way that I was raised. I will spread neurosis throughout the landscape and do my best to recreate myself and the damages of my life for the next generation. | |||||||

Orson Welles | Interview | 0:24:12 | 0:24:48 | ||||
I don't believe there is any wisdom in compromise, unless you're a politician. And to the extent that movies are politics, I don't belong in movies. I cannot compromise. When I do something which is compromised, it is poorer than a second-rate director's picture. My pictures don't work at all unless they work my way. It's not because I think they're better that way; they simply fall apart unless they're done my way. | |||||||
Timothy "Speed" Levitch | Working for a living | The Cruise | 1998 | 0:25:18 | 0:26:28 | ||

Harrison Ford & River Phoenix (actors), Paul Theroux (novel), Paul Schrader (screenplay) | America is a toilet | Mosquito Coast | 1986 | 0:27:07 | 0:27:39 | ||
Look around you. How did America get this way? Land of promise, land of opportunity. Give us the wretched refuse of your teaming shores. Have a Coke, watch TV, have a nice day, go on welfare, get free money, turn to crime (crime pays in this country). Why do they put up with it? Why do they keep coming? Look around you, Charlie: This place is a toilet. | |||||||
Harrison Ford (actor), Paul Theroux (novel), Paul Schrader (screenplay) | We eat when we're not hungry | Mosquito Coast | 1986 | 0:27:38 | 0:27:52 | ||
We eat when we're not hungry, drink when we're not thirsty, we buy what we don't need, and throw away everything that's useful. Why sell a man what he wants? Sell him what he doesn't need. Pretend he's got eight legs and two stomachs and money to burn. It's wrong, wrong, wrong. | |||||||
Harrison Ford (actor), Paul Theroux (novel), Paul Schrader (screenplay) | It's an absolute sin to accept the decadence of obsolescence. | Mosquito Coast | 1986 | 0:28:10 | 0:28:21 | ||
It's an absolute sin to accept the decadence of obsolescence. Why do things get worse and worse? They don't have to; they can get better and better. We accept that things fall apart, but they don't have to. Things can last forever. | |||||||

Steven Jesse Bernstein | More Noise Please | Prison | 1992 | 0:29:33 | 0:30:18 | ||
..can't live without all this goddamn noise. Maybe I need the noise to write poems, make love and eat. I'm going to hang a sign out my window that says, "more noise, please," or, "thank you for making noise." Maybe we are the kind of people who need to have what we don't want just to get along, to do the basic things... Myself, I could not sleep last night. I could not close the window, either. I tried to tear the window out of its frame. | |||||||

Timothy "Speed" Levitch | Running from the cops all my life | The Cruise | 1998 | 0:36:05 | 0:36:48 | ||
...According to them I was running from the cops for a month before they caught up to me. ...and I felt like a fugitive. But you know what? Every day I feel like a fugitive. It never occurred to them that I am running from the anti-cruise every day. And when I was up in front of the judge for my arraignment, the judge said my biggest problem with this case is that this guy, this current person we're judging, ran from the police for a month. And if I could've spoken, of course I wasn't allowed to speak, I would've said, it's been a lot more than a month. I've been running from you people all my life, all my life, and I'm going to keep running. | |||||||
