    I watched it in Drau Village and Anna's family in Italy. I didn't understand a single sentence, but the picture was good, the soundtrack was good, and the plot was...

    To be honest, I don't really like this kind of masculine sensational, noble and flamboyant stuff. Almost all the motivation comes from my inner yearning for beauty and nobility. This really makes me unbearable, and of course this is also the embodiment of the author's spirit. I probably know this story, its most fundamental motivation does not come from...

    Uncle Gibson is too old for me to recognize. For such a good thing as compiling a dictionary, professors have to be run on by those old-fashioned old-fashioned people who think they are superior because of their high status. Human society is really...

    Originally read in 2014. From "Let us begin at aardvark and never stop until we reach zymurgy" to "Sometimes when we push away, that is when we most needed to be resisted". If love...then what? To have someone to share that ecstasy found in words. Now I know what awaits...

    In the original book, author Simon Winchester wrote: "On a cool, misty afternoon in the late autumn of 1896, in the small village of Crothorne in Berkshire, one of the most extraordinary events in the history of modern literature occurred. Ordinary conversation." He described the meeting as "folklore", which shows its secret and legend. One side of the meeting is a self-taught professor from humble backgrounds, the other is a madman with schizophrenia, two unrelated people who are connected by...

    If love, then love. The actors are quite good, and the real story itself has tension, but the director is too greedy and lacks skill, and the effect is a little...

    Think of the animation/Japanese drama "The Story of the Boat", but it's different. A trivial, a...

    #truestoryadaptation# All great and beautiful things come from a glimpse, not discarded into the dark. This is freedom, standing on the spine of the book, leaping over the wall, using the wings of words, to reach the top of the world. Reading is my chasing after God's footsteps. Comparing it with "Bai Zhou Ji", it is also a compilation, another way of writing, and another...

The Professor and the Madman quotes

  • James Murray: Who's she?

    Dr. William Chester Minor: The impossible.

    James Murray: The more impossible, the greater the love.

    Dr. William Chester Minor: Do you truly believe that? My heart is so sick.

    James Murray: Well... what I know of love is that the sickness often becomes the cure.

  • Ada Murray: Sometimes when we push away, that is when we most need to be resisted.
