"When we don't have information,
we go to the simplest outlook,
to black and white.
But then we have to lie to ourselves.
Black is never as black as you're painting it
and white is never as white...."

we go to the simplest outlook,
to black and white.
But then we have to lie to ourselves.
Black is never as black as you're painting it
and white is never as white...."
