More From Immanuel Kant

When one has once accepted and absorbed evil, it no longer demands the unfitness of the means. the ulterior motives with which youabsorb and assimilate evil are not your own but those of evil.... evil is whatever distracts. evil knows of the good, but good does not know of evil. knowledge of oneself is something only evil has. one means that evil has is the dialogue.... one cannot pay evil in installments--and one always keeps on trying to.

There's always the same amount of good luck and bad luck in the world. if one person doesn't get the bad luck, somebody else will have to get it in their place. there's always the same amount of good and evil, too. we can't eradicate evil, we can only evict it, force it to move across town. and when evil moves, some good always goes with it. but we can never alter the ratio of good to evil. all we can do is keep things stirred up so neither good nor evil solidifies. that's when things get scary. life is like a stew, you have to stir it frequently, or all the scum rises to the top.

Take away someone’s fear, or low intelligence, or dishonesty . . . and you take away their compassion. take away someone’s aggression and you take away their motivation, or their ability to assert themselves. take away their selfishness and you take away their sense of self-preservation.

Annihilation itself is no death to evil. only good where evil was, is evil dead. an evil thing must live with its evil until it chooses to be good. that alone is the slaying of evil.

I challenge hillary clinton; take away your secret service. take it away now! take away your secret service! dismiss them! have no security around you. have no guns around you, hillary. i dare you! i dare you! obama, same thing. drop your guns, obama! take your secret service away, obama. take it all away! leave the white house unguarded, obama. let everybody know there's no guns on the white house grounds, obama. you know what would happen in 30 seconds? both of those people would no longer be on planet earth.

The problem of good and evil is not the problem of good and evil, but only the problem of evil. in opposition to good there are evil characters, but there are no good characters in opposition to evil. evil is arguable, but good is not. therefore the devil always wins the argument.

What i really like is the marriage of both [writing and acting] - for instance, with postcards. i don't actually act in it, but i worked on it with mike [nichols] as i went along, creating the character, so it was a bit like acting for me.

If you judge the character, you cant play it.

It is only when mind and character slumber that the dress can be seen. if the intellect were always awake, and every noble sentiment, the man might go in huckaback or mats, and his dress would be admired and imitated.

I get bored with the same old film coming out every weekend. it feels like it's the same story all the time, and the same visuals, and the characters' dilemmas are remarkably similar.
