Marjane Satrapi

It is dangerous when you start calling people from one part of the world terrorists or fanatic, and you reduce them to some abstract notion. If evil has a geographical place, and if the evil has a name, that is the beginning of fascism. Real life is not this way. You have fanatics and narrow-minded people everywhere.

One of the reasons that fascism ascended to power so quickly was that it was considered socially elegant to support this new way of government.

Sebastian Lelio

Either we learn to live together and embrace the complexity of life, or we will end up with fascism again and destroy ourselves.
