1. "In the meantime, there exists
    our culture and their culture, our cinema and their cinema. Because
    our culture is an impulse towards emancipation, it will remain in existence until emancipation is a reality: a culture of subversion which
    will carry with it an art, a science, and ‘a-cinema of subversion."

  2. "The models of production, distribution, and exhibition
    continued to be those of Hollywood precisely because, in ideology and
    politics, films had not yet become the vehicle for a clearly drawn differentiation between bourgeois ideology and politics. A reformist policy, as manifested in dialogue with the adversary, in coexistence, and
    in the relegation of national contradictions to those between two supposedly unique blocs-the U.S.S.R. and the U.S.A.-was and is unable to produce anything but a cinema within the System itself."

"Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established , an ideal to which reality [will] have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence."---- The German Ideology, 1845
