It Is The Objective Of The Protagonist

Policemen So Cherish Their Status As Keepers Of The Peace And Protectors Of The Public That They Have Occasionally Been Known To Beat To Death Those Citizens Or Groups Who Question That Status.

For It Is Written That Just As It Is Forbidden To Partake Of The Forbidden, It Is Forbidden Not To Partake Of The Permitted.

You Don't Know What Life Is. You Know Nothing.

The Israelis Would Like To Live In Peace Within Their Borders; The Arabs Would Like To Kill Them All.

Every Reiteration Of The Idea That _nothing Matters_ Debases The Human Spirit. Every Reiteration Of The Idea That There Is No Drama In Modern Life, There Is Only Dramatization, That There Is No Tragedy, There Is Only Unexplained Misfortune, Debases Us. It Denies What We Know To Be True. In Denying What We Know, We Are As A Nation Which Cannot Remember Its Dreams--like An Unhappy Person Who Cannot Remember His Dreams And So Denies That He Does Dream, And Denies That There Are Such Things As Dreams.
