We're dealing with fundamentalists... proverb
 I was struck by the Amish aspect of the film, ... As my first American film, I could go to a country within a country, and that would seem to me a better landing spot for me, as an English-speaking foreign director. I don't think I would have done it if, instead of the Amish community, it had been the Italian community in New York. I would have felt too inhibited and thought that the territory of other filmmakers. |
Peter Weir (1944-)
| I'm an old-fashioned guy. There are two kinds of coaches: schemers and fundamentalists. Fundamentalists teach blocking, tackling and holding on to the ball. |
| Fundamentalists are not friends of democracy. And that includes your fundamentalists in the United States. |
| India has become a soft target for Islamic fundamentalists. Moreover, the Uttar Pradesh government has a soft stance towards fundamentalists. It could have acted after the intelligence report but it did not. |
| Foreign rightwing fundamentalists attacked the United States. Domestic rightwing fundamentalists took the spotlight. And everywhere, progressives, liberals, and moderates either fell in behind them, or retreated into the shadows . . . We have seen the consequences. |
| The fundamentalists are increasing. People, afraid to oppose those fundamentalists, shut their mouths. It is really very difficult to make people move against a sensitive issue like religion, which is the source of fundamentalism. |
| This is how you falsify reality, ... The problem in India is not the Islamic fundamentalists. It's the Hindu fundamentalists, who will destroy India in the end. |
| There are fundamentalists, Christian fundamentalists, who appear to be in charge of the White House at the moment, but they are very different from the Christian gentlemen who ran the British Empire and believed they were doing good works around the world. These days it's about naked power. |
John Pilger (1939-)
| I'm not opposed to dealing with Pennsylvania Amish. But I have not found many of them that meet our quality criteria. It's a combination of craftsmanship and finishing. |
| At Motel 6 in Amish Country I wonder if they leave the light on for you? |
| He will be in grave danger as long as he remains in the country. The fundamentalists will seek to kill him regardless of what the courts say. He is an apostate and must be killed according to Islamic law. |
| We deal with about 50 different Amish families from Ohio who hand-make all our furniture. We have 40, maybe 50 catalogues for you to go through, and when you see something that you want, we'll shop around because the prices do vary. We find the best price that we can pass on to the customer -- the best quality at the best price. |
| Many of us have this neo-Amish pattern in our use of technology, and it's our own way to exert some sort of power over it. These gadgets are supposed to be serving us, but we have so many of them that we feel like we're enslaved to our servants. So we create restrictions to show who's boss. Like, I may be a slave to e-mail, but I don't text-message, therefore I really have the upper hand. |
| I came from a country where religious fundamentalists, including governmental authorities, denied my freedom to have thoughts that are different from their own. As a punishment, they demanded my execution by hanging. I was forced to leave my own country. I had to pay heavily for the sole reason that I believe in human rights and freedom of expression. |
| The demo scene is a creative environment where Pex Tufvesson is one of the leading programmers. |
