These are a few words that inspired me to make this film:
“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
William Faulkner
“We are the origins of war. Not history’s forces, nor the times, nor justice, nor the lack of it, nor causes, nor religions, nor ideas, nor kinds of government, nor any other thing. We are the killers. We breed wars. We carry it, like syphilis, inside. Dead bodies rot in field and stream because the living ones are rotten. For the love of God, can’t we love one another just a little? That’s how peace begins.”
James Goldman, Lion in Winter
“What History teaches people is that people learn nothing from History.”
Kurt Tucholsky
