Louis H. Mackey as Old Anarchist

• (Louis H. Mackey) "When young, we mourn for one woman -- as we grow old, for women in general. The tragedy of life is that man is never free yet strives for what he can never be. The thing most ferared in secret always happens. My life, my loves, where are they now? But the more the pain grows, the more this instinct for life somehow asserts itself. The necessary beauty in life is in giving yourself to it completely. Only later will it clarify itself and become coherent."

• (Louis H. Mackey) "And remember: the passion for destruction is also a creative passion."

Kalman Spelletich as Video Backpacker

• (Kalman Spelletich) "To me, my thing is, a video image is much more powerful and useful than an actual event. Like back when I used to go out, when I was last out, I was walking down the street and this guy, that came barreling out of a bar, fell right in front of me, and he had a knife right in his back, landed right on the ground and -- Well, I have no reference to it now. I can't put it on pause. I can't put it on slow mo and see all the little details. And the blood, it was all wrong. It didn't look like blood. The hue was off. I couldn't adjust the hue. I was seeing it for real, but it just wasn't right. And I didn't even see the knife impact on the body. I missed that part."

Scott Rhodes as Disgruntled Grad Student

• (Scott Rhodes) "Every action is a positive action, even if it has a negative result."
