Quotes

The Attic

Edit
  • [first title card]
  • Title Card: This video was made as a tribute to America, not as an attack against it. It is meant as a grand celebration of the First Amendment and the freedom of artistic expression. That we can do this proves once again that America is not only the greatest country in the world today but also the greatest country in the history of civilization. *God Bless America!* - Thomas Zupko
  • [first lines]
  • Veronica Caine: It's funny how money changes the way you look at yourself. Started doing porn movies, started drivin' a car, it was... nice. Funny how when you got money in your pocket you feel a lot better about yourself. Think about it: when I weighed my options: no college degree, no money in the bank: what was I going to do with my life? My options could have been pretty dismal. Imagine if I didn't live in a country where I had the right to express myself. Then I guess I would be flipping burgers. And it's not degrading, like some of my friends and family said: just the opposite. Never felt like I had more power. I have the right to say who, when, how, and how much. It's great. Finally. A sense of freedom. Those are good days for me. Freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of dreams; men died for these dreams. Men died for these freedoms. Know what freedom is to me? Sucking cock.
  • [last lines]
  • Veronica Caine: Now this attic that once resounded with the joy of liberty has now been replaced with the sound of marching feet. In the late 1930s, Germany, a beaten country, needed something to distract its people from what they had become. So madmen came to power based on this weakness. He knew how to play on the peoples primitive fears. It's always easiest to blame it on someone else and it always starts off slowly and oh so very subtly. You pick out something that annoys you or disturbs you, perhaps something that you can never be. So we focus on this thing. It's easy to be angry at those people who are smarter than you, prettier than you, richer than you, different from you. Who don't look like you, speak like you, think like you, act like you, walk like you, live like you, who you think don't even know you. They first took my mother because she was an atheist, then they took my father because of the color of his skin. It's a slow burn to repression especially when you prey upon that thing that unknowingly makes them you. So then you twist the blade into their heart and their mind and you extract an unreasonable fear based on these weaknesses and then you are them, they are you.
