"You can make yourself feel better about yourself if you project your shadow side, if you project your own potential for evil onto someone else. By annihilating them and, therefore, your shadow, you bring yourself into some state of purity or reformation"

This quote by Jennifer Beals recommends that we can make ourselves feel better about ourselves by predicting our own potential for wicked onto somebody else. By doing this, we can "wipe out" the person and, in turn, our own "shadow side" - the parts of ourselves that we do not wish to acknowledge or accept. This can result in a sense of pureness or reformation, as we have rid ourselves of the parts of ourselves that we don't like. This quote encourages us to take responsibility for our own actions and to be familiar with our own capacity for evil, instead of predicting it onto others. It likewise suggests that we can use this procedure to enhance our own self-image and to end up being more accepting of ourselves.
