Mall Quote

Jeff: [walking along]It's like what Orwell said, we all live in a giant machine. We're nothing but numbers. No one needs to torture me to make be behave, no cage of rats around my head. I have no choice but to behave. [stops to urinate on a dumpster]
Jeff: And that's what they want - you to give in. So think about the rats and the futility, and you know what I say? Fuck it.
Jeff: Look, they made that sidewalk to look a sidewalk to make this mall look like where people thrive. But it's not real. No one walks on the soul-less paths. No one cares about the dystopian landscaping. This place is like a cardboard cut-out of a mall. We believe in a world generated by computers and corporations. The reality does neither replicate a real human experience. [pointing at a kiosk]
Jeff: Artificial scented candles. [a video playing]
Jeff: Hmm, artificial sex appeal. [a Chinese place]
Jeff: Cultural simulation. Nostalgia. Fabricated memories. Manufactured happiness. Hot cookies, fresh out of the oven. Just like mom never really made them.
Adelle: Those smell good...

Movie: Mall
