“Equilibrium” quotes
(2002)Plot – Peace reigns over Libria. The rules that govern the Librian system are very simple: anyone who is happy gets arrested and anyone who cries can be pursued by the law. Reading a book or admiring a painting is a crime and anyone who misses his daily dose of Prozium, the medicine prescribed by the State, could be condemned to capital punishment. Senior government official John Preston has always believed in these rules, but one day he skips his daily dose of Prozium. He discovers a world of incredible feelings and decides that it is time to fight for freedom.

And without it, without love, without anger, without sorrow, breath is just a clock... ticking.”“Mankind united with infinitely greater purpose in pursuit of war than he ever did in pursuit of peace.”
