Network: The Last Great Film About Media | The Daily Sheeple:
"“You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale, and I won’t have it!!
Is that clear?!…
You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples.
There are no nations.
There are no peoples.
There are no Russians.
There are no Arabs.
There are no third worlds.
There is no West.
There is only one holistic system of systems, one vast and immane, interwoven, interacting, multivariate, multinational dominion of dollars.
Petro-dollars, electro-dollars, multi-dollars, reichmarks, rins, rubles, pounds, and shekels.
It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet.
That is the natural order of things today.
That is the atomic and subatomic and galactic structure of things today!
And YOU have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and YOU WILL ATONE!”
(Arthur Jensen, to Howard Beale, “Network,” 1976)"
