Nobody ever spoke about Utopia
before 1516. The word and the idea were completely unknown.
Guess why. Everybody believed in paradise and then suddenly
somebody was talking about the idealized place and vision.
You can imagine the paradise: nothing is missing, nothing
is too much. Compared to that, private utopia is just
an attempt at a perfect measure. Therefore, find your
own island or mountain and make your own movie.
