Life has no bystanders - Kant

Network

I started to have this idea many years ago, and I feel that I live in the world of film and television media creation. The virtual line that connects oneself and life is the network, and the changes of emotions are perfectly controlled by the colors on the screen. It seems that our feelings and souls have been loaded into the screen, the TV, mobile phone and computer are the whole of life, where we have everything our spirit needs, an endless fantasy that will never be broken. No longer happy because I met a stranger, but I often feel nervous because of the puppets on the stage, maybe because they are carefully created characters, the actors are like perfume bottles of different shapes, with colorful aromas in their bodies . Sometimes we love them more than ourselves, we become them in our dreams and they replace us in reality.

Network quotes

  • Howard Beale: We'll tell you anything you want to hear, we lie like hell.

  • Howard Beale: [arms outstretched to the heavens] Edward George Ruddy died today! Edward George Ruddy was the Chairman of the Board of the Union Broadcasting Systems, and he died at eleven o'clock this morning of a heart condition, and woe is us! We're in a lot of trouble!

    Howard Beale: [calmly strolling toward the audience] So. A rich little man with white hair died. What has that got to do with the price of rice, right? And *why* is that woe to us? Because you people, and sixty-two million other Americans, are listening to me right now. Because less than three percent of you people read books! Because less than fifteen percent of you read newspapers! Because the only truth you know is what you get over this tube. Right now, there is a whole, an entire generation that never knew anything that didn't come out of this tube! This tube is the Gospel, the ultimate revelation. This tube can make or break presidents, popes, prime ministers... This tube is the most awesome God-damned force in the whole godless world, and woe is us if it ever falls in to the hands of the wrong people, and that's why woe is us that Edward George Ruddy died. Because this company is now in the hands of CCA - the Communication Corporation of America. There's a new Chairman of the Board, a man called Frank Hackett, sitting in Mr. Ruddy's office on the twentieth floor. And when the twelfth largest company in the world controls the most awesome God-damned propoganda force in the whole godless world, who knows what shit will be peddled for truth on this network?

    Howard Beale: [ascending the stage] So, you listen to me. Listen to me: Television is not the truth! Television is a God-damned amusement park! Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, side-show freaks, lion tamers, and football players. We're in the boredom-killing business! So if you want the truth... Go to God! Go to your gurus! Go to yourselves! Because that's the only place you're ever going to find any real truth.
