This is My Favorite Moment From Great Movie "Cape Fear" , in this moment there is 1 of My Favorite Quote , Where De Niro is saying : "I am like God, and God like me. I am as large as God, He is as small as I. He cannot above me, nor I beneath Him be. Selatius, 17th Century. "
Robert De Niro's Max Cady giving a kind of a Dionysian soliloquy because De Niro's Max Cady is hinting at Friedrich Nietzsche's Übermensch. There were references to Nietzsche during the film: the opening shot of De Niro doing a bar dip exercise shows a collection of books and one is THE WILL-TO-POWER, and another scene is the Private Detective said Cady was at the library reading THUS SPAKE ZARATHUSTRA.

Silesius also called himself Angelus Silesius, which is interesting considering Joss Whedon's enormously popular Angel(us) TV-series, which reflects several aspects of Silesius' heretical writings
