      Please don't believe in the future

      Maybe it is a kind of superstition, maybe it is because of people's love and dislike of work, people are always willing to place hope in the future. People always want to believe in the future, even in their hearts. People believe in the future, believe that in the future, people can find some kind...

      Worrying time travel, crazy paradox

      When I was talking about "The Butterfly Effect" with my friends, I was recommended to watch "Twelve Monkeys". Sure enough, people who like tangled will not be disappointed when they watch this kind of film.
            Humans who hide underground like earthworms without seeing the light of day, and...

    12 Monkeys quotes

    • [James Cole found a spider and knows he's got to take it with him, let's it crawl over his hand while deciding what to do with it]

      Jeffrey Goines: You know what crazy is? Crazy is majority rules. Take germs, for example.

      James Cole: Germs?

      Jeffrey Goines: Uh-huh. In the eighteenth century, no such thing, nada, nothing. No one ever imagined such a thing. No sane person, anyway. Ah! Ah! Along comes this doctor, uh, uh, uh, Semmelweis, Semmelweis. Semmelweis comes along. He's trying to convince people, well, other doctors mainly, that's there's these teeny tiny invisible bad things called germs that get into your body and make you sick. Ah? He's trying to get doctors to wash their hands. What is this guy? Crazy? Teeny, tiny, invisible? What do you call it? Uh-uh, germs? Huh? What? Now, cut to the 20th century. Last week, as a matter of fact, before I got dragged into this hellhole. I go in to order a burger in this fast food joint, and the guy drops it on the floor.

Germs is just a plot they made up so they can sell you disinfectants and soaps." Now he's crazy, right? See?

      [James Cole finally takes the spider into his mouth, Jeffrey Goines is either too deep into his talk or unimpressed by this and continues his talk as if nothing happened]

      Jeffrey Goines: Ah! Ah! There's no right, there's no wrong, there's only popular opinion. You... you... you believe in germs, right?

    • James Cole: Look at them. They're just asking for it. Maybe the human race deserves to be wiped out.

      Jeffrey Goines: Wiping out the human race? That's a great idea. That's great. But more of a long-term thing. I mean, first we have to focus on more immediate goals.
