Adam Curtis, the BBC documentary maker with a keen eye for archival footage and historical trends said this, during an interview with the Register:
“We should be saying to people ‘I’m going to take you out of yourself and show you something you haven’t thought of, which is either awesome, or incredible, or will inspire you’”.
This is the first – and perhaps only – post on this blog that simply presents a quote, but the sentiment is so marvelous that it is worth repeating. More from Curtis here.
