    • Quotes
      I am interested in what it is to be human as in humane, and how so much of our history is the opposite. The solution to that, to some degree, is empathy. We're lost because of our inability to live within our empathetic impulses, but the contradictions are intriguing. That's in Blade Runner. Plus the idea of perfecting ourselves, but then Roy Batty puts his maker's eyes out.
