A scene from Forbidden Planet 1956
Commander Adams

Whatever you know in here, your other self knows out there.

Dr. Morbius
[angrily]

I'm not a monster, you...

Commander Adams
[grappling with Morbius]

We're all part monsters in our subconscious, so we have laws and religion!

Dr. Edward Morbius How ironic that a simple scholar, with no ambition, beyond a modest measure of seclusion, should out of the clear sky, find himself besieged by an army of fellow creatures, all grimly determined to be of service. Dr. Edward Morbius Yes, a single machine, a cube 20 miles on each side. Dr. Edward Morbius The fool, the meddling idiot. As though his ape's brain could contain the secrets of the Krell.
