This shit life... we must chuck some things

After watching this movie, I have been silently understanding these lines in my heart.

"Do you know that the harder thing to do and the right thing to do... are usually the same thing? Nothing that has meaning is easy. Easy doesn't enter into grown-up life. "
"Did you know: The hard things and the things that should be done... are often the same thing?
Nothing that matters is easy. There is no easy word in adult life."

"This shit life... we must chuck some things. We must chuck them... in this shit life. There's always looking after. You have time."
"To this shit life... we have to chuck them. We have to throw them... in This kind of shit is in life. There is always something to take care of. You still have time. "

I think, if it was half a year ago, I might not have understood the taste of it, just like half a year ago I still couldn't understand it. "Taste wine is to taste life". But when you have experienced some hardships and you can only face them directly but cannot avoid them, you can only feel helpless. And, as the line above says, "There's always looking after". Dry your tears and puff out your chest. Because, we have grown up and we still have the people we love.

Dedicated to my mother, may she be peaceful and healthy in heaven.

    Dave Spritz: Fuck you right now.

    Russ: Fuck you, Spritz.

    Dave Spritz: Fuck you, fat asshole! Dildo!

    Robert Spritzel: David, what are you doing?

    Dave Spritz: I'm talking to my wife! I'm talking to Noreen, and this clown whose business this isn't.

    Russ: You call me a dildo, it is my business, Spritz.

    Dave Spritz: You *are* a dildo, pork fuck. You porker!

  • Dave Spritz: I remember once imagining what my life would be like, what I'd be like. I pictured having all these qualities, strong positive qualities that people could pick up on from across the room. But as time passed, few ever became any qualities that I actually had. And all the possibilities I faced and the sorts of people I could be, all of them got reduced every year to fewer and fewer. Until finally they got reduced to one, to who I am. And that's who I am, the weather man.
