“I want us to remember what happened that day and be horrified by ourselves because it really is a mirror on our society. And rather than tying it up in a bow and thinking that there is something we can take away from it and we'll be better people; I think what we really need to realize is that we're not very good people, and we're often not.”
― Craig Steven Wilder

“It is a strange fact that America is only prepared to look at herself through the safety of cartoons: Shrek, South Park and The Simpsons hold the mirror to society.”
― Rupert Everett, Red Carpets And Other Banana Skins

“Most things don't stay the way they are very long.”
― Richard Ford, Canada

“Just across the bridge is the gigantic marketplace, the insatiable consumer machine that drives the violence here.

― Don Winslow, The Cartel
