I look on cinema as a pulpit, and use it as a propagandist.

The oblique paradox of propaganda is that the lie in the throat becomes, by repetition, the truth in the heart.

My view... would be that we are entering upon a new and interim society which is neither capitalist nor socialist, but in which we can achieve central planning without loss of individual initiative, by the mere process of absorbing initiative in the function of planning.

And, consequently, the art of propaganda or public information becomes one of the most powerful forms of directive statesmanship.

In fact, the individual outlook becomes less and less valuable and more and more harmful unless it is transmitted into the corporate outlook.

We have built our State on the freedom of personal adventure.

Such manifestations I account as representing the creative leadership of the new forces of thought and appreciation which attend changes in technological pattern and therefore of the pattern of human relationships in society.
