It as an argument between the world of emotion versus the world of the intellect. It's the idea that you can suppress a person's mind and a person's experiences, mentally, psychologically and intellectually, but you can't completely quiet them to the point of dormancy and the emotionally life a person. You still have the heart and what the heart remembers and what the heart experiences. And even that isn't important that that comes across.

Colin FarrellAn actor said recently that, unless you're a parent, you shouldn't play a parent in a film. I don't know who said it, but I disagree.
