1. This film made me calm down and regain the power of reason. 2. What is the use of art? It can instantly hit people's hearts, and achieve results that can't be achieved by countless lectures. It can also be memorable and trigger thinking, attracting people to explore beauty and complete the exploration of the essence of the world. Good works are always memorable. Art is the best tool for outputting values. It can reach the heart without saying anything directly. 3. My favorite part about rules is making rules. It's fun to be on schedule, isn't it? But the most fascinating places in the world are those who can make the rules of the game. 4. The closer a person is to a huge amount of money, the more they understand the power of money and the weakness of the human heart, the more transparent they are, the more likely they are to promote the strengths of money and avoid the weaknesses of money, and become a winner. When you can steer the public's attention to long-term desire rather than risk, you can be the maker of the money game. No one is not greedy. What people at the high end of the food chain have to do is to use this greed to generate value. The way to blur the line of sight is to make everyone fanatical with you to share the risk. In a market, high-end players attract the public to enter the market, but only he knows when they leave the game. Everyone can play together and reap the dividends brought by the frenzy together, but they will always be the ones who make the most money. Humans love tossing, so money never sleeps. A world dominated by money is the most stable world. Finance and greed never need to be blamed for disaster. When everyone is at fault, it's just the unfortunate one who is to blame. The difference in values ​​between people stems from the difference in the depth of the world they see. Those who have a deeper understanding of money can better operate money, those who have a deeper understanding of the world can better change the world, and those who have experienced cruelty more deeply can overcome cruelty faster. 5. The episode of the cleaners makes one feel the profound despair brought about by the time lag of the stormy waves of the world of the prophets spreading to the world of the latter. One group of people silently shapes the lives of another group of people, and even silently leads them to disaster. In this game, the winner always wins, the loser always loses, and the loser never knows or even wants to know what happened. The old game of money has always had a market because there is no questioning and resistance, and therefore no change. This is the greatest tragedy of the ideological divide, and the reason why money is always arrogant. So natrually, some people don't lose money, but you do. The world can be completely simplify to only win and lose. In an efficient world, you need to only ask about winning or losing, and only accept that you live or die. So finance is efficient, and so is war. Change must be thorough, and interest adjustment must be thorough, and change can be useful. 6. In a world run by made up, as an individual, you must consider yourself important, and you must rationalize everything you do. If you have a firm belief in yourself, others are willing to follow. 7. When the music stops, enjoy your choice and enjoy the sufferings. 8. People just don't understand: if you don't own a considerable amount of money, you can't behave well on moral levels. You have to kill something you believe to earn it.(You have to kill it to keep it./Get it until you kill it.) 9. The only thing I am sure of is that my understanding of the world will always change and it will continue to change . We need something bigger than ourselves to understand and break. 10. Gather smart people to do what is right and good, not shortsighted, and don't have to act like Wall Streeters. It is okay for a group to establish their right to speak, but instrumental rationality should not be the standard for everyone. To be continued... People just don't understand: if you don't own a considerable amount of money, you can't behave well on moral levels. You have to kill something you believe to earn it. (You have to kill it to keep it. /Get it until you kill it.) 9. The only thing I am sure of is that my understanding of the world will always change and it will continue to change.

Margin Call quotes

  • John Tuld: So you think we might have put a few people out of business today. That its all for naught. You've been doing that everyday for almost forty years Sam. And if this is all for naught then so is everything out there. Its just money; its made up. Pieces of paper with pictures on it so we don't have to kill each other just to get something to eat. It's not wrong. And it's certainly no different today than its ever been. 1637, 1797, 1819, 37, 57, 84, 1901, 07, 29, 1937, 1974, 1987-Jesus, didn't that fuck up me up good-92, 97, 2000 and whatever we want to call this. It's all just the same thing over and over; we can't help ourselves. And you and I can't control it, or stop it, or even slow it. Or even ever-so-slightly alter it. We just react. And we make a lot money if we get it right. And we get left by the side of the side of the road if we get it wrong. And there have always been and there always will be the same percentage of winners and losers. Happy foxes and sad sacks. Fat cats and starving dogs in this world. Yeah, there may be more of us today than there's ever been. But the percentages-they stay exactly the same.

  • Will Emerson: Jesus, Seth. Listen, if you really wanna do this with your life you have to believe you're necessary and you are. People wanna live like this in their cars and big fuckin' houses they can't even pay for, then you're necessary. The only reason that they all get to continue living like kings is cause we got our fingers on the scales in their favor. I take my hand off and then the whole world gets really fuckin' fair really fuckin' quickly and nobody actually wants that. They say they do but they don't. They want what we have to give them but they also wanna, you know, play innocent and pretend they have no idea where it came from. Well, thats more hypocrisy than I'm willing to swallow, so fuck em. Fuck normal people. You know, the funny thing is, tomorrow if all of this goes tits up they're gonna crucify us for being too reckless but if we're wrong, and everything gets back on track? Well then, the same people are gonna laugh till they piss their pants cause we're gonna all look like the biggest pussies God ever let through the door.

    Seth Bregman: Do you think we're gonna be wrong?

    Will Emerson: [long pause] No, they're all fucked.
