“Whole generations unknowingly playing parts in a script written by a select few. We repeat the same plot over and over again. They teach it to us and we teach it to others, teach them to follow the path over the cliff without realizing it. We might even go so far as to uphold and defend that script. We’re capable of spending whole lives following the rules made for us, resisting change, going in circles, treading on our own tails like rats in a lab, never imagining there are other possible realities.”
