Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.00,0:03:45.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because you’d hear the same thing from other people:

Dialogue: 0,0:05:09.05,0:05:12.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then it means you’ve attained that state.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:12.95,0:05:19.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, you will have a machine-person that looks like a normal person.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:19.18,0:05:22.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, when he’d be a psychiatrist in the future,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:47.11,0:05:51.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the same [facial expressions], and it’ll look like an Arab. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:51.72,0:05:56.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because we are inclined not to listen to people that are not like us.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:56.100,0:06:02.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, there’s a lot of problems up ahead. We’re not sane, yet.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:02.28,0:06:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,None of us [are sane, yet] because we’re brought up in a given environment,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:22.05,0:06:25.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So how can you expect to talk to people, or communicate,
