The Man in the High Castle quotes

Librarian: What we do not understand can be frightening.
Nobusuke Tagomi: Yes it can be, but when one is troubled by the reality of this world. It can be comforting to consider other possibilities, even if those possibilities disturb us. So strong is the desire to escape the tyranny of consciousness and the narrow boundary's of our perceptions, to unlock the prisons of thought in which we trap ourselves all in the hope that a better world or a better version of ourselves perhaps may lie on the other side of the door.

Juliana Crain: You hardly seem happy.
Joe Blake: Just wake up! This is the world we live in. One that can be perfected, but not by your idea of goodness. Make peace with that, and there's a way out of this.

Joe Blake, Juliana Crain
