      It can only be thought.

      Thought 1:
      I think my will is strong enough and I can control myself.
      However, when you are in a whirlpool, you realize how fragile and small your personal will is.

      Thought 2:
      Maybe each of us has a crazy factor in our body. The more dangerous, mysterious, and unknown, the more it will attract us.

      Thought 3:
      Can anyone really tell the difference between madness and sobriety?

      The Corridor of Horror: Reflections on the Meaning of Deadly Destruction

      A shocking sentence appeared in the quiet and ghostly corridor: If God wants to destroy a person, he will choose to make that person crazy. This opened the curtain of this noir film. At first, I thought it was a very popular horror film, but after watching it, it was completely different from my original idea, and it did not tend to stay on the audio-visual screen simply on the surface.
