Waking Life
I gotta ask you a question...
I don't really know how to say it...
"What's it like to be a character in a dream?"

Deputy:
"None of the three had id on 'em but to tell me that all three is Mexicans. -Was Mexicans."
Sheriff:
"There's a question! 'Whether they stopped being and when'."

Malcolm X
Quotes by Malcolm X
"When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire . . . or preserve his freedom."
"You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being."
"I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressed and those that do the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between those who want freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who want to continue the systems of exploitation."
"If you're not ready to die for it, put the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary."
"There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance next time."
“…Early in life I learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise.”
“Power in defense of freedom is greater than power in behalf of tyranny and oppression, because power, real power, comes from our conviction which produces action, uncompromising action.”

Where to watch The Nines.
Everyone,
I found a great site that hosts links to the film "The Nines" starring Ryan Reynolds.
It's interesting thinking.
And Ryan Reynolds is a beautiful man.

Meryl Streep
In the movie The Devil Wears Prada Meryl Streep portrays a head-strong, power hungry, in control business woman who possesses a tremendous amount of power. The character is extremely skilled at keeping that power, and ensuring that it is never taken from her. Throughout the movie she uses her power to transform a humble nerdy young lady into a sophisticated fashion savvy woman. She uses her power to torture those around her, setting impossibly high standards for her employees to adhere to. She also uses the power to ensure her position is safe at her place of business. Meryl Streep portrays a head-strong, power hungry, in control business woman, and the role illustrates a character who is conscious of the importance of power in her life personally, and the lives of those who surround her.
