Psycho-pass – Anime Quotes [Season 1, Episode 19]

Is it really a "system"? Or more like a huge prison? The Panopticon... A facility that allows you to observe everyone at once. Sibyl is its worst possible form. You can control the maximum number of prisoners with the minimum number of guards.

— By the way, what would you say is the definition of anarchism?
— It's a denial of government and authority, but different from flat-out chaos and disorder.
