"You can not kiss an idea, can not touch it or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain. They do not love. And it is not an idea that I miss, it is a man."
– V for Vendetta (2005)

"We are more connected than ever, but ironically more detached from one another. On the web, people create their own interpretations of reality that take on a life of their own, becoming more important than the truth. In a sense, we’re in the middle of a new Cultural Revolution: society now values perception over reality."

Oppression

Now dreams
Are not available
To the dreamers,
Nor songs
To the singers.

In some lands
Dark night
And cold steel
Prevail
But the dream
Will come back,
And the song
Break
Its jail.

"
– Langston Hughes
