No hero? I cannot agree with that.
Do you really believe so? Do you believe music is more impresive than your first love?

Where did you take this picture? It is so beautiful.
Well, it doesn't matter. When we drink great coffee, it doesn't matter where it is from.

婚姻不是那么糟,
正如爱情和青春也不是那么完美.

法制比较重要, 要有成群的lawer, 随时打官司挣钱, 这样权力才有制约.
民主也就是社会各阶层的一个中庸的妥协, 但这种妥协是必要的.
60年代美国人也选过 liberal, everything is possible.
越战也是一种所谓为理想的战争. 人类是不完美的, 所以会有自私死亡战争.
但战争越来越不popular了, 这是一种进步吧.

王家卫的“堕落天使”我很喜欢,one of my most favorite movies.
最近看了几个老片不错:
The Barbarian Invasions ****
Matrix ***
Naked in New York **
Falling in Love *
国内的电影好久没看了, 看过一个“寻枪”不错, “可可西里”是同一个导演.
等着看Oliver Stone的Alexander.
推荐两个法国老片:
My Sex Life,
Late August, Early September
都是我喜欢的聊天型的片子。

Bob Dylan 这首歌唱了三十年了, 现在听起来还不错, 可称为永远年轻的一首歌。
我们这些听他的歌人都老了,他还Forever Young.

"My formula for greatness in a human being is amor fati: that one wants nothing to be different, not forward, not backward, not in all eternity. Not merely bear what is necessary, still less conceal it—all idealism is mendaciousness in the face of what is necessary—but love it."
--Friedrich Nietzsche

谢谢介绍好的音乐 !
我喜欢那上面的Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins, Metallic...
我不是很懂,有意思的音乐,也许就象你写的:"你真的能感受到他们的激情".
这么说来,古典音乐有意思的应该更多吧。
前几天翻到一本写听音乐的书, 说这个孤独的人听音乐是一种浪费, 浪费了聆听自己的机会。
庄子说是自然的啸声。 有好听的就听吧。

中年人仍就反叛, 新的一代简单投降。
摇滚乐在美国也是如此, 技术再好也没用,没有灵魂的一拨儿。

Tango is also the story of Robert Devull.
He fell in love in Agantina while learning Tango.
He even made a movie out of it.

The more I look at the so-called success, the more I see struggle and vanity."

Just strip the label off any music, and listen to it.
I still cannot understand why most classic music listeners dislike Rock/Pop music.

Most of people around me dislike this movie for various reasons. I don't want to see this movie either. It is dangerous to mix movies/media with politics, because an average Joe only listens to what media says.

failure at 30 ? For many people life stops at 40, they are buried behind minivan, kids, family ... It should not be the case anymore.
I suggest everyone gets another PhD after 40.

电影的作者是"朱文" (不知道是不是写"我爱美元"的那个朱文),
讲一个人想去云南想了很多年, 终于在退休后去了.
用作者的话来说: "从某种意义上, 我们已经老到开始理解并且赞赏他们一代人,而过去的隔绝和误解让我感到愧疚 ... 我想为我父母那代人讲这个故事." "他们毫无怨言地度过非常的年代, 在现实的生活中表现出一种超现实的忍耐."

How about summerizing your existing thoughts, understanding and experience ?
This might be a good topic. You can write in the style of Alain De Botton:

Yi is a frutile way to understand changes, trying to measure sea with cup. It is even more primitive than science.

It is a common theme in religion, philosophy or psychology to "negate" or "ignore" desires and emotions.
Here is what Williams James wrote:
"The best manuals of religious devotion accordingly reiterate the maxim that we must let our feelings go, and pay no regard to them whatever. In an admirable and widely successful little book called 'The Christian's Secret of a Happy Life,' by Mrs. Hannah Whitall Smith, I find this lesson on almost every page. Act faithfully, and you really have faith, no matter ho

Sometimes it is better not to say anything in words.
There is a reason buddism encourages silence.
"Faith-state" is a passive state.
