Nothing but peace

There are a lot of plots in this film that left a deep impression on me. A'e put on lipstick in front of the mirror and then hurriedly wiped it off. The big guy moves the guy's eyes anytime, anywhere. The desperate kiss in the phone booth, etc. Very attractive indeed the life of a gangster.
He lived a life full of confidence and style in the predicament of nothing, and when he brought a younger brother against a dozen enemies, he was also full of confidence. In the face of A'e, who lives a stable life, and a doctor who works regularly, he is as confident that he can get it. What is it that supports him? I remember in the film he said "I never know what tomorrow will be like".
Maybe it is because there is no tomorrow that we can go out and make today's life full of confidence. If you are worried about your livelihood tomorrow, you have to work hard today. If you are worried about your health, you have to eat carefully. If you are worried about the safety of your home, you have to padlock and repair the wall. The future is full of beautiful imaginations, so we cherish the present, so we live in despair. Every day life is not for the present but for the future. The present that has nothing will always have to wait for the future to be realized.
Don't dare to kiss confidently after saying goodbye for a few years, because I don't think it's good enough now. I don't dare to risk everything, even just to seize a piece of brotherhood, because tomorrow morning there will be soy milk fritters at home. A'e asked, "How long are you going to stay in Lantau Island?" The boss replied, "It doesn't matter." How much I envy such an answer, people these days, planning a trip are afraid of missing any arrangements for the return trip, and they have to be fully prepared to leave the city. I am so envious, I envy such a life of nothingness and peace of mind.
The moment Wu Fei was frightened to pee in the alley, he decided that he would never be able to really Jiang Jiang once in his life.

As Tears Go By quotes

  • Wah: I did a lot of things for our godfather too. By the age of 14, I was already getting paid to kill. I've got more guts than most guys, right? But look at me now. I'm just an ordinary guy!

    Fly: At least you were a hotshot for a while! But what about me? What about me? Everyone looks down on me. Does that make you happy? People think I'm nothing, like some stray dog just following you around! Did you know that? I'd rather be a hero for one day than go on being a fly all my life!

  • Wah: I just wanted to say...I found that glass.
