Hearing Dean's red-eyed "Hi, Sal, I love you as ever." after being rejected by Sal, I suddenly seemed to understand that Dean was ruthless in the case of Salder's dysentery in Mexico. He told Thrall that he would go first, leaving him lying on the bed and Thrall watching Dean in despair as he took the few dozen dollars left in his wallet from the table. It was estimated that Thrall would kill Dean at that time. All have. Old Bull Lee may be right when he said, "Dean has no sense of responsibility for others, no sense of responsibility, but he feels that others have some kind of obligation to stand up for him." Thrall does not think so, he thinks that Dean is a Someone who has a certain energy to make friends around him happy, Thrall likes Dean's wildness and passion for life. And Thrall's character is missing this part. When he met this gangster-like guy, he said, "I know Dean is lying to me, and he also knows that I know, but we didn't tell the truth, That's the bottom line for us to be friends." That way each can get what they want from the other. Dean wandered in the West around the age of ten, maybe he had tasted all the cold and warm, and was rarely loved by others. He can only live in the world he defines. If someone loves him and respects him, he will feel that he has earned it. It doesn't matter if no one loves him. He has not been loved since he was a child, so he will not have a strong sense of gain and loss. The only thing that makes him feel satisfied is that he keeps changing women for pleasure. In his world, sex is the most sacred thing in the world. Maybe at this time, he can find the feeling of being loved. So when Thrall was lying on the hospital bed with dysentery convulsions, and Dean ruthlessly abandoned his friend who was in Mexico yesterday, it's not hard to understand that it didn't matter in Dean's world. A few years later in the winter, on the streets of New York at night, Dean appeared in front of Thrall and told Thrall that he had been on the train for five days and five nights and had a hard seat, just to see Thrall. Thrall was surprised and then politely asked if her wife and children were okay. Dean then imagines Thrall explaining what happened in Mexico. But Thrall doesn't seem to want to hear anymore. When Dean asked if he could take him down to East Fourteenth Street to talk to each other. Thrall refused and got into the car. Leaving Dean alone on the streets of New York. Say the elusive "Hi Thrall, I love you as ever".
PS "When people live, they warm each other", maybe they warmed each other in the most confusing time, and they also got what each other wanted. When time has passed, it is gone. No one is right or wrong. There are no like-minded people all their lives, and friends only accompany you through a certain short-circuit at a certain time period, and at the next crossroads, can you guarantee that you will go in one direction, not if you are like the left, will he go in the other direction? Besides, this road is more than a crossroads? Keep those memories, good or bad, so what? Because it belongs only to you.

On the Road quotes

  • Dean Moriarty: Hey Sal... I love you as ever.

  • Sal Paradise: The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
