Dunes Movie Quotes

I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia. I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder.

We can tell the difference between sand dunes and sand castles, for instance, because we see purposeful design in the castles. None of us would happen upon a sandcastle and believe that it arrived there by chance. Furthermore, when we speak of design we mean a specific, complex design—not simply a pattern of some sort. It is the difference between “BDHIGE-HGDVNB,” which is complex but has no design, “BBBBBBBB,” which has design but is not complex, and “Be back at 8 p.m.,” which is both designed and complex. When we see complex, specific design, we recognize it as the result of an intelligent being.
