Renault's speech was one of the foundation setting speeches for
the symbolic meaning of the show.

What he said is what Cooper has been thinking about for a while.
I suspect that Lynch himself pushed to get that speech said.
The act of observation upsets the thing being observed.  Cooper
has destroyed the balance of good versus evil in Twin Peaks.  To
regain equilibrium, life must be adjusted.  I think that this is
what will happen over the next few episodes.
