“The Matrix is surely the kind of film about the matrix that the matrix would have been able to produce.”
― Jean Baudrillard

“A pod in the Matrix is looking pretty good right now.”
― Catherine McKenzie, Forgotten

― Kevin Michel, Moving Through Parallel Worlds To Achieve Your Dreams

“So think how this might alter the memory of The Matrix: In some protracted reality, film historians will reinvestigate an extremely commercial action movie made by people who (unbeknownst to the audience) would eventually transition from male to female. Suddenly, the symbolic meaning of a universe with two worlds—one false and constructed, the other genuine and hidden—takes on an entirely new meaning.”
― Chuck Klosterman, But What If We're Wrong? Thinking About the Present As If It Were the Past

“This is why, where art is concerned, the most interesting thing would be to infiltrate the spongiform encephalon of the modern spectator, For this is where the mystery lies today: in the brain of the receiver, at the nerve centre of this servility before 'works of art'. What is the secret of it?
In the complicity between the mortification 'creative artists' inflict on objects and themselves, and the mortification consumers inflict on themselves and their mental faculties.
Tolerance for the worst of things has clearly increased considerably as a function of this general state of complicity.
Interface and performance - these are the two current leitmotifs.
In performance, all the forms of expression merge - the plastic arts, photography, video, installation, the interactive screen. This vertical and horizontal, aesthetic and commercial diversification is henceforth part of the work, the original core of which cannot be located.
A (non-) event like The Matrix illustrates this perfectly: this is the very archetype of the global installation, of the total global fact: not just the film, which is, in a way, the alibi, but the spin-offs, the simultaneous projection at all points of the globe and the millions of spectators themselves who are inextricably part of it. We are all, from a global, interactive point of view, the actors in this total global fact.”

“Success is often simple, though because of lies and brainwashing, people are tricked into thinking it's convoluted and complex.”

“Agent Smith: Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist?
Neo: Because I choose to.”

“All of reality is owned by like five mega-corporations at this point," Gorbo explains.”

“A yogi who through perfect meditation has merged his consciousness with the Creator perceives the cosmical essence as light (vibrations of life energy); to him there is no difference between the light rays composing water and the light rays composing land.

Free from matter-consciousness, free from the three dimensions of space and the fourth dimension of time, a master transfers his body of light with equal ease over or through the light rays of earth, water, fire and air.”
― Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

“I just want to be clear on this," said Zzzap. "We need to get guns—lots of guns—and then rescue our ultra-calm leader who’s been captured by Agent Smith?”

“No filme, The Matrix, Neo finalmente encontra o criador da Matrix. Neo era “o escolhidoâ€�, e teria de definir quem vivia e quem morreria.
Ele deveria aceitar a morte de todos, em nome de reiniciar a Matrix. O criador o colocou na condição de que ele decidiria o futuro de todos, em nome de uma causa maior, que seria reiniciar a Matrix rumo a uma Matrix. Similar fábula de Noé, o criador queria limpar a Matrix do fato de que deu errado de novo, e ele já havia feito isso antes, e dera errado também.
O criador, decepcionado com sua criação, já havia destruído antes a Matrix. A Matrix era uma mentira contada aos habitantes. Eles vivem felizes, enquanto as máquinas os usavam como bateria humana. Neo, diferente dos outros, fez uma escolha diferente: ele voltou, não fugiu que nem Noé, covarde. Noé juntou algumas peças de animais e sua família, e ficou caladinho.”
