Summary

This quote suggests that it is not always important or necessary to have a clear and definite answer for everything. In fact, having vague or blurry concepts can often compel individuals to concentrate and explore more deeply. On the other hand, when someone claims to have complete clarity and certainty in their beliefs and ideas, it can lead to arrogance and unwillingness to consider other perspectives. The quote advocates for embracing the uncertainty and accepting that not all questions have simple and absolute solutions.

The legal principle placing the burden of proof on accusers

The legal principle placing the burden of proof on accusers rather than the accused can be traced back to Second and Third Century Roman jurist, Julius Paulus Prudentissimus. Yet, this ancient concept, which forms the legal and moral cornerstone of the American judicial system, is quickly being undermined in the name of 'national security.'

In some movies you feel like you're a very small part of a huge machine. Whereas in the theater you can have a very small part, but you can still feel the weight and the gravity of it. Given the nature of theater, it's a more concentrated and quiet experience.
