Dark Ages Monastacism : It's The Men Who Will Bring Civilisation Back Again

I say,

'Civilisation, yes!' 




Paglia: 
What Will Happen is -

 It’s The Men. . . 

The Men will reconstruct Civilisation while The Women cower in the houses and have The Men go out and do all The Dirty Work. 

That’s what’s going to happen again. 

Only Men Will Bring Civilisation 

Back Again.

Grandpa Fred: 

Creature —

What is it That You Want?

Brain : 

Fred, what we want is, I think, what everyone wants, 

and what you and your viewers have: 

Civilisation.

Grandpa Fred: 

Yes, but what sort of Civilisation are you speaking of?

Brain : 

The niceties, Fred. 

The fine points: 
Diplomacy, Compassion, 
Standards, Manners, 

Tradition... 

That's what we're reaching toward. 

Oh, we may stumble along the way, but Civilization, yes. 

The Geneva Convention, 
Chamber Music, 
Susan Sontag. 

Everything Your Society has worked so hard to accomplish over the centuries, 
That's what We aspire to - 

We Want to be Civilised.

[a Gremlin with a beanie cap acts goofy next to Brain]

Brain : 

You take a look at this fellow here.

[Brain shoots the Gremlin in the head. The Gremlins in the bar laugh. Grandpa Fred and Kujitsu leave]

Brain : 

Now, was that Civilised? 

No, clearly not. 

Fun, but in no sense civilised. 

Now, bear in mind, none of us has been in New York before. 

There are the Broadway Shows - 
We'll have to find out how to get tickets. 

There's also a lot of street crime, 
but I believe we can watch that for free. 

We want The Essentials. 

Dinettes. Complete bedroom groups. 

Convenient Credit, 
even though we've been turned down in The Past....

Michonne: 

What-- what are you doing? 

Rick! Rick! 

( walkers snarling ) 

( grunting ) 

Michonne:

Rick's out There. 

Denise Didimus,

The Twin :

[ performing surgery ]

Hold on. 

Michonne:

He needs my help. 

Denise Didimus, 

The Twin :

Just one more suture. 

Michonne:

But he's out there. 

Denise Didimus, 

The Twin :

 This is His Son. 

Give me a Second. 

Aaron, 

The Unarmed, 

Incompetent Prophet : 

He's taking them all on. 

Michonne:

We have to go get him. 

Aaron, 

The Unarmed, 

Incompetent Prophet : 

What? 

Michonne:

We have to. This is it. 

Denise: 

Okay, got it. 

Knock 'em away. 

Drive 'em down. 

We can beat 'em. 

We can beat 'em! 

Rick, The Lionhearted : 

Drive 'em back. That's it. 

We can do this together! 

(Judy Christ Crying ) 

Will you take her? 

Of course. 

Come with me. Okay, okay. Thank you. It's okay. 

Villager :

Gabriel. What are you doing? 

Fr. Gabriel,

Warrior-Priest :

We've been praying... together. 

Praying that God will save Our Town. 

Well, our prayers have been answered. 

God will save Alexandria... 

Because God has given us the courage 

to save it ourselves. 

Guys, it's thinning out there in front. 

We need to get out there. 

Rick's making A Stand. 

Eugene, 

The Natural Coward: 

How's that? 

Rosita Espinoza, 

You Are Damn-Near Perfection :

He's Out There fighting Them 

with Michonne and some others. 

Carol,

The Mom :

It's time. Up the alley. I'm going.

Denise is safe. 

Tara :

Did you see her? 

Carol,

The Mom :

Yeah, she made it to the infirmary.

I'm gonna go help Rick.

Morgan,

Enkidu, The First Friend

Spirit of The Wilderness :

I'm going, too. 

Tara: 

I'm with you. 

Rosita Espinoza, 

You Are Damn-Near Perfection : 

All right, me, too. 

Eugene, 

The Natural Coward:

Right behind you. 

Rosita Espinoza, 

You Are Damn-Near Perfection :

Eugene, you don't have to. 

Eugene, 

The Natural Coward:

That's incorrect. I do. 

No-one gets to clock-out Today. 

And, Hell - This is a Story People are Gonna Tell.
