"Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler." - Nietzsche
All quiet on the western front.
And at night, waking out of a dream, overwhelmed and bewitched by the crowding apparitions, a man perceives with alarm how slight is the support, how thin the boundary that divides him from the darkness.
We are little flames poorly sheltered by frail walls against the storm of dissolution and madness, in which we flicker and sometimes almost go out.
Everyone dies. You're born, and you die. The bit in the middle's called life, and that's still to come! - Lister/RedDwarf
Hate to be cliche..
And yet. Some movie scripts just speak to you.
Strange Days
MACE: You're some piece of work, you know that. Just calmly backstroking around in the big toilet bowl, and somehow you never let it touch you. I mean, between Vice and this so-called occupation you're in now, you must've seen it all.
LENNY: I have crawled through the gutter... through every wrinkle in the human brain.
MACE: What I'm saying. But you still come out this goofball romantic.
LENNY: It is my sword and my shield, Macey.The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place It will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me or nobody is going to hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit, it is about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much can you take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! - Rocky BalboaThe purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things. - Rainer Maria RilkeSuddenly this devotion to the music, which so often looked like stupidity, looks like greatness. Then we all take a ride on the pretty music, the past is another place, and there is only the glorious now. - Iggy Pop, Open Up and Bleed, by Paul Trynka
