Nonetheless, we live in societies with rules, and if you break them, the pack turn against you.
Competition, discrimination, victimization and violence... As society grows, so does its perversion.
I know that i am different, yet i am afraid to tell the society.
The disapproval of cowards is praise to the brave.
Sofia Sartor:
You mentioned a creed before. What is it?
Ezio Auditore Da Firenze:
Nothing is true, everything is permitted.
Sofia Sartor:

It would be if it were doctrine. But it is merely an observation on the nature of reality. To say that nothing is true is to realise that the foundations of society are fragile and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions and that we must live with our consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
Society, as we have constituted it, will have no place for me, has none to offer; but Nature, whose sweet rains fall on unjust and just alike, will have clefts in the rocks where I may hide, and secret valleys in whose silence I may weep undisturbed.

— You are perfectly right. You have employed your time much better. No one privileged of hearing you could think anything wanting. We neither of us perform to strangers.
In today's capitalistic society there are ranks and castes that are invisible to the eye. We keep them disguised and out of sight and superficially look down on class hierarchies as a relic of the past, but the reality is that there are class lines that cannot be crossed. I think that this film depicts the inevitable cracks that appear when two classes brush up against each other in today's increasingly polarized society.
