It means that each factory will be making Robots of a different color, a different nationality, a different tongue; they'll all be different — -as different from one another as fingerprints; they'll no longer be able to conspire with one another; and we — -we people will help to foster their prejudices and cultivate their mutual lack of understanding, you see? So that any given Robot, to the day of its death, right to the grave, will forever hate a Robot bearing the trademark of another factory.

Additional quotes by Karel Čapek

... Be there people either Conservatives or Socialists, Yellows or Reds, the most important thing is — and this is the point I wish particularly to stress — that all of them are right in the plain and moral sense of the word... I ask whether it is not possible to see in the present social conflict of the world an analogous struggle between two, three, five equally serious verities and equally generous idealisms? I think it is possible, and this is the most dramatic element in modern civilization, that a human truth is opposed to another truth no less human, ideal against ideal, positive words against words no less positive, instead of the struggle being, as we are so often told it is, one between noble truth and vile selfish error.

A tak se mi zdá, že spánek je jako temná a hluboká voda. V ní odplývá všechno, o čem nevíme a nemáme vědět. Ten divný rmut, který se v nás usazuje, se vyplaví a odtéká v tom bezvědomí, které nemá břehů. Naše špatnosti a zbabělosti, všechny ty naše všední a trapné hříchy, naše ponižující voloviny a nezdary, ta vteřina lži a nelásky v očích těch, které milujeme, to, čím jsme se provinili my, i to, čím se jiní provinili na nás, to všechno tichounce odplývá někam za dosah vědomí. Spánek je nesmírně milosrdný; odpouští nám i našim viníkům.
