"La Miranda: Ah, they're bastards. What need was there to confiscate my makeup case? This is real brutality. Mattie: How the hell can they do that? As if we didn't have a constitution and rights. La Miranda: We don't have them. Only they have them. Mattie: Who would they be? La Miranda: America, the free and great America, the other America. Mattie: 'Fuck free America. We are the real America. At least we still believe in freedom, right? [...] How did I think it would be different in New York? La Miranda: The Statue of Liberty is a liar."
