"I can guarantee the closest shave you'll ever know."

- Sweeney Todd

Maria: Can you stop watching TV for a minute?
Matthew: No.
Maria: Why?
Matthew: Because. I had a bad day at work. I had to subvert my principles and kow-tow to an idiot. Television makes these daily sacrifices possible. Deadens the inner core of my being.
Maria: Let's move away then.
Matthew: They have television everywhere, there's no escape.

"I've been a soldier and a slave. I've seen comrades fall in battle or die more slowly under the lash in Africa. I've held them at the last moment. These were men who saw life as it is, and they died despairing. No glory, no brave last words, only their eyes, filled with confusion, questioning "Why?" I do not think they were asking why they were dying, but why they had ever lived. And if life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? To surrender dreams - this may be madness; to seek treasure where there is only trash. Too much sanity may be madness! But maddest of all is it to see life as it is and not as it should be!"

Cervantes in "Man of La Mancha" (1972)

-The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

ANDREWS: All right, once gain this is rumor control. Here are the facts. At 0-four-hundred hours, prisoner Murphy, through carelessness on his part, was found dead in vent shaft 17. From the evidence gathered on the spot, he seems to have been caught by a strong air draft and got blown into the ventilator fan. At 0-four-hundred hours, prisoners Boggs, Rains and Golic left on a routine foraging mission into the underground network; at about 0-seven-hundred hours, prisoner Golic re-appeared in a deranged state. Prisoner Boggs and Rains are missing. Unfortunately, there seems to be a good chance that they have met with foul play at the hands of prisoner Golic. We need to organize and send out a search party. Volunteers will be appreciated.

[Stops under the air vent, near the doorway to the kitchen.]

ANDREWS: I think it's fair to say that our smoothly running facility has suddenly developed a few problems. I can only hope that we are able to all pull together in the next few days, until the rescue team arrives for Lieutenant Ripley...

RIPLEY: It's here! It got Clemens!

ANDREWS: Stop this raving at once! Stop it!

RIPLEY: I'm telling you, it's here!

ANDREWS: I'm telling you, get control of yourself, Lieutenant! Mr. Aaron, get that foolish woman under control at once! Get her back to the infirmary!
