Add a common sense ~Kassandra plot~

Hannah 2021-10-13 13:06:17

Foreseeable people often have to endure great mental loneliness. Silence, depression, and endurance are painful; speaking, calling, and changing are often ineffective, unconsciously falling into the "Kassandra complex" and destroying oneself before everything comes. People who are not foreseeable are incompetent, and those who foresee too early are helpless. The trend cannot be reversed, cannot be violated, cannot be artificially promoted, and can only be watched quietly.

There is a similar saying in China, "The secret of heaven cannot be leaked"!
Cassandra The prophet of Troy. Because she can predict the future, she is classified as a witch. It is said that the source of Kassandra's power is because one day Apollo, the god of truth, saw Kassandra and fell in love with her. Apollo gave her the ability to predict the future, but Kassandra refused Apollo's show of love, and became angry Apo. Luo put a curse on her, so that others would never believe what she said, so she was destined to always know the truth but powerless to prevent tragic things from happening. She is a member of Troy, and she predicted that if the Trojan horse is welcomed into the city, Troy will be destroyed, but no one believes that Troy will be destroyed in this way.

12 Monkeys quotes

  • [James Cole found a spider and knows he's got to take it with him, let's it crawl over his hand while deciding what to do with it]

    Jeffrey Goines: You know what crazy is? Crazy is majority rules. Take germs, for example.

    James Cole: Germs?

    Jeffrey Goines: Uh-huh. In the eighteenth century, no such thing, nada, nothing. No one ever imagined such a thing. No sane person, anyway. Ah! Ah! Along comes this doctor, uh, uh, uh, Semmelweis, Semmelweis. Semmelweis comes along. He's trying to convince people, well, other doctors mainly, that's there's these teeny tiny invisible bad things called germs that get into your body and make you sick. Ah? He's trying to get doctors to wash their hands. What is this guy? Crazy? Teeny, tiny, invisible? What do you call it? Uh-uh, germs? Huh? What? Now, cut to the 20th century. Last week, as a matter of fact, before I got dragged into this hellhole. I go in to order a burger in this fast food joint, and the guy drops it on the floor. Jim, he picks it up, he wipes it off, he hands it to me like it's all OK. "What about the germs?" I say. He says, "I don't believe in germs. Germs is just a plot they made up so they can sell you disinfectants and soaps." Now he's crazy, right? See?

    [James Cole finally takes the spider into his mouth, Jeffrey Goines is either too deep into his talk or unimpressed by this and continues his talk as if nothing happened]

    Jeffrey Goines: Ah! Ah! There's no right, there's no wrong, there's only popular opinion. You... you... you believe in germs, right?

  • James Cole: Look at them. They're just asking for it. Maybe the human race deserves to be wiped out.

    Jeffrey Goines: Wiping out the human race? That's a great idea. That's great. But more of a long-term thing. I mean, first we have to focus on more immediate goals.
