Horse of Turin

she swayed in the wind

Even sleeping at night is the sound of the wind blowing off the tiles She dressing and cooking for her father is like a silent confession

what is meaningful and what is stagnation

Roaring against the anger that has nowhere to vent, a deep sense of powerlessness

In the light and shadow of black and white, repeating and repeating the cycle, and finally going to death, it seems meaningless, long and procrastinating, it makes people feel the urge to quit, but when you look at it all, there will be a sense of impact, that slow impact, when the confrontation has no effect at all

Only the horses who waited for the long wait for the beginning and the horses at the end formed a contrast

The Turin Horse quotes

  • Bernhard: Theirs is the moment... nature, infinite silence.

  • Narrator: In Turin on the 3rd of January 1889, Friedrich Nietzsche steps out of the doorway of number six, Via Carlo Albert, perhaps to take a stroll, perhaps to go by the post office to collect his mail. Not far from him, the driver of a hansome cab is having trouble with a stubborn horse. Despite all his urging, the horse refuses to move, whereupon the driver - Giuseppe? Carlo? Ettore? - loses his patience and takes his whip to it. Nietzsche comes up to the throng and puts an end to the brutal scene caused by the driver, by this time foaming at the mouth with rage. For the solidly built and full-moustached gentleman suddenly jumps up to the cab and throws his arms around the horse's neck, sobbing. His landlord takes him home, he lies motionless and silent for two days on a divan until he mutters the obligatory last words "Mutter, ich bin dumm!" and lives for another ten years, silent and demented, under the care of his mother and sisters. We do not know what happened to the horse.
