"I reject the idea there are just two sides. I think that with the amount of ideas and thoughts there are, it's not even going to be consistent with the same person. People can hold liberal and conservative dogma points at the same time. They're not living their lives via platforms. They're living their lives. The whole thing is an awfully tired construct."
"Everybody's so busy wanting to be down with the gang. 'I'm conservative', 'I'm liberal', 'I'm conservative'. Bullshit! Be a fucking person! Lis-ten! Let it swirl around your head.

Edvard: I happen to like dogs.
Mr. Screws: Oh, I see. Animal lover, are we?
Edvard: Yes.
Mr. Screws: The company of your fellow man not good enough for you, Mr. Edvard?
Edvard: I like people AND dogs. You can like two things.
