1. People out here, it's like they don't even know the outside world exists. Might as well be living in the fucking moon…It's all one ghetto,man,giant gutter in outer space. There is another world, just like living on the moon. There is only one zone in the world, but it is just a broken ditch in the universe. 2. Look,I consider myself a realist,all right?but in philosophical terms,I'm what's called a pessimist…it means I'm bad at parties. I think I am a realist, but philosophically speaking, I I am a pessimist, which means I am not suitable for parties. 3. I think human consciousness was a tragicmisstep in evolution, we became too self-aware.Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself.We are creatures that should not exist by natural law.We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, this accretion of sensory experience and feeling programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when, in fact, everybody's nobody. I think the honorable thing for species to do is deny our peogramming,stop reproducing,walk hand in hand into extinction,one last midnight,brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal,(Marty asked what peope should do in the morning)I tell myself I bear witness, but the real answer is that it's obviously my programming, and I lack the constitution for suicide. Part of it is taken out of it and turned into nature. From the law of nature, we are creatures that shouldn’t exist. We are enslaved by the illusion that we have a self. The sensory experience and sensation are combined and set. Believe that each of us is someone, but in fact, none of us are. For all species in the world, the most noble thing is to refuse to be set, stop reproducing, and go hand in hand to extinction. On the last night, my brothers and sisters sought justice in their lives. (Marty asked what to do every morning) I told myself to prove, but in fact I was just set up like this, and I didn't have the courage to commit suicide. 4. I get a bad taste in my mouth out there, aluminum, ash, like you can smell the psycho's fear. 5.Doctors said,she didn't feel a thing,went straight into a coma and then,somewhere in that blackness, she slipped off into another deeper kind.——Isn't that a beautiful way to go out? Painlessly, as a happy child.Yeah, trouble with dying later is you've already grown up.Damage is done,It's too late. The doctors said that she was unconscious at the time and went into a coma. Then, somewhere in the darkness, she left quietly and went into the deeper darkness. ——Isn't this way of death beautiful? No pain, just a happy child. The trouble with dying later is that you have grown up, the injury has been done, and it is too late. 6.You have kids? Well ,you got the hubris, it must take to yank a soul out of nonexistence and into this meat and to force a life into this thresher.And as for my daughter,she,uh,she spared me the sin of being a father. Do you have children? (Answer: Yes) Then you must be arrogant enough to find a soul out of nothing and stuff it into the child's body and let a life be trapped here. As for my daughter, she saved me from the sin of being a father. 7. Just observation and deduction. I see a propensity for obesity, preference, a yen for fairy tales,folks putting what few bucks they do have into little, wicker baskets being passed around. They are all obese, poor, and longing for fairy-tale beauty. People put the little money they have in the small basket that passes in turn. 8. If the common good has got to make up fairy tales, then it's not good for anybody. 9.If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of divine reward, then, brother, that person is a piece of shit. and I'd like to get as many of them out in the open as possible. God's reward can make people walk the right way, so brothers, such people, are rubbish. I am willing to do my best to remove them out of the world. 10.M: Do you think that notebook is a stone tablet? Marty: Do you think the Bible is a tombstone? L: What's it say about life? You got to get together, tell yourself stories that violate every law of the universe just to get through the goddame day? Luster: How does it describe life? You must gather together and tell yourself stories that blaspheme the laws of the universe, just to make life easier. 11.What's that say about your reality, Marty? How does faith solve your reality problems? 12.Been that way since one monkey looked at the sun and told the other monkey,"He said for you to give me your fucking share. "People so goddamn frail they'd rather put a coin in a wishing well than buy dinner. Ever since a monkey looked at the sun and said to another monkey, "God said, let you share all the hell you have with me." "People are very fragile. They would rather throw money into the wishing well than buy dinner. 13.Transference of fear and self-loathing to an authoritarian vessel, it's catharsis. Transfer fear and self-loathing to authoritarianism In this container, this is a kind of catharsis. 14.He absorbs their dread with his narrative, because of this, he's effective in proportion to the amount of certainty he can project. Whether his words are convincing or not is directly proportional to the certainty of the story he outlines. 15. Certain linguistic anthropologists think that religion is a language virus that rewrites pathways in the brain, dulls critical thinking. Some linguists believe that religion is The virus of language can rewrite the path of the brain and make critical thinking dull. 16. See, we all got what I call a life trap, this gene-dee certainty that things will be different, that you'll move to another city and meet the people that'll be the friends for the rest of your life, that you'll fall in love and be fulfilled.fucking fulfillment,heh,and closure.whatever the fuck those two¬¬--fucking empty jars to hold this shitstorm and nothing is ever fulfilled until the very end,and closure—No, no,no.Nothing is ever over. We have all encountered what I call the "life trap", it makes you believe that everything will be different, you will move to other cities, you will meet friends, these friends will accompany you for life , You will fall in love and realize your dreams, the damn dreams come true, and the end of life. No matter what the two are, if you want to do porcelain work without diamonds, you can't achieve any dream until the end of the world, and it's over, no, no, everything will not be over. 17.See,the preacher,he encourages your capacity for illusion,then he tells you it's fucking virtue.Always a buck to be had doing that,and it's such a desperate sense of entitlement,isn't it? Start your imagination, and then he tells you that this is a fucking virtue: it's not easy to do this! Sounds so natural again, doesn't it? 18. People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time. People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time. 19.You just look them in the eyes.The whole story is right there.Everybody wears their hunger and their haunt, You know? As long as you look into their eyes, the whole story will emerge, and everyone's purpose and purpose cannot be concealed. 20.People,I've seen the finale of thousands of live,man,young,old,each one is so sure of their realness that their sensory experience constituted a unique individual,with purpose,meaning…so certain that they were more than a biological puppet. Well, the truth wills out, and everybody sees once the strings are cut, all fall down. Human beings, I have personally seen the end of thousands of lives, men, young people, and old people. Everyone does not question their authenticity and believes that their own sensory experience makes them a unique individual, purposeful and meaningful. I never thought that I was just a doll in the biological world, but the truth will eventually come to light. Everyone will find that once the thread is cut, everyone will fall. 21. –So what is synesesia? So what is synesesia? -Synesthesia.It's a misalignment of synaptic receptors and triggers.alkalis,colors,certain metallics.It's a type of hyper sensitivity.One sense triggers another sense.Sometimes I'll see a color,and it'll put a taste in my mouth .A touch,a texture,a scent may put a note in my head.I've heard that…. It's not a side effect. It's synesthesia, which is the misalignment of the combined receiver and trigger in certain aspects, such as alkalinity, color, or specific metal. It is a kind of hypersensitivity. One sense stimulates another. Sometimes I see a color and taste a taste in my mouth. The touch, texture, or smell can leave a mark in my mind. . . This is not a side effect. 22.M: Think a man can love two women at once, I mean, be inlove with them? Marty: Suppose a man can love two women at the same time, the kind that loves each other deeply. R: I don't think that man can love.at least not the way that he means.Inadequacies of reality always set in. Rast: I don't think that man can love.at least not the way that he means.Inadequacies of reality always set in. Way, there are always flaws in real life. 23. World needs bad men, We keep the bad men from the door. (I never doubt that I am a good man) The world needs bad men. It's up to us to keep other bad guys out. 24. This is what I mean,when I'm talking about time and death, and futility.There are broader ideas at work, mainly what is owed between us as a society for our mutual illusion. This is what I am referring to when trying to avoid invalidity. There will be more ideas at work. These ideas come from the same illusion that the human being as a society as a whole holds. 14 straight hours of staring at DBs, these are the things you think of. you ever done that? Staring at the corpse for fourteen hours, you will think of these things, have you done it? You look in their eyes,even in a picture.Doesn;t matter if they're dead or alive.You can still read them,and you know what you see? They welcomed it,mm-hmm,not at first,but right there in the last instant.It's an unmistakable relief,see,because they were afraid and now they saw for the very first time how easy it was to just let go,and they saw—in that last nanosecond,they saw what they were, that you,yourself,this whole big drama,it was never anything but a jerry-rig of presumption and dumb will and you could just let go,finally now that you didn't have to hold on so tight...to realize that all your life. You stare into their eyes, even if it’s just a photo, it doesn’t matter whether they are alive or dead. You can read the information you want. Do you know what you will see? You will see that they are also willing to do this for you, maybe not at first, but it will always be like this at the last moment. Obviously this is a relief, because they were afraid in the first place. Then they will find for the first time that letting go is so easy, and at the last moment, they will see that they will see themselves, you, yourself and this series of farce, but it is just crude assumptions and stupid wishes. And now you can let go. Anyway, there is no need to persist anymore. Don't worry about your life. —You know,all your love,all your hate,all your memory,all your pain—it was all the same thing.It was all the same dream,a dream that you had inside a locked room,a dream about being a person …And like a lot of dreams…there's a monster at the end of it. Your love, hate and entanglement, your memories and pain, are all one, all are the same dream, a dream that you can only dream in a secret room , A dream about how to behave, like many other dreams, there is a monster at the end of the dream. 25. You know being stupid's different than callin' in sick. Stupid and sick are two different things. 26.They're the only reason for this whole man-woman drama.Just that people fuck up.We age,men, women.it's not supposed to work except to make kids.So,if you can imagine Marty's behavior as an expression of weakness,pain, you'd see that it's not about you. These things between men and women are all because of children. People will mess things up. We will grow old. Men and women should not develop other relationships other than reproducing offspring. So you can regard the behavior of the pony (infidelity) as a sign of weakness and pain. You can see that it is not because of you. 27. Why should I live in hitory,huh?Fuck,I don't want to know anything anymore.This is a world where nothing is solved. Someone once told me,"time is a flat circle."Everything we've ever done or will do, we're gonna do over and over again... Why should I indulge in the past? Fuck, I don't want to know anything anymore. The world is full of unsolvable things. Someone once said to me, "Time is a flat circle", and everything we have done or will do, we will do it over and over again. 28.Everybody knows there's something wrong with them.they just know what it is,everybody wants confession,everybody wants some cathartic narrative for it,the guilt especially.Oh,but everybody is guilty. They just don’t know what it is. Everyone wants to confess. Everyone wants to vent, especially those who are really guilty. After all, who doesn’t? 29. See, infidelity is one kind of sin, but my true failure was inattention. Betrayal of marriage is indeed a sin, but my original sin is indifference. (This sentence is said by Marty, I think it’s quite good) 30.You ever heard of something called the M-brane theory?It's likeinthis universe,we process time linearly forward,but outside of ou spacetime,from what would be a fourth-dimensional perspective,time wouldn't exist,and from that vantage,could we attain it,we'd see our spacetime would look flattened,like a single sculpture with matter,in a superposition of every place it ever occupied, our sentience just cycling through our lives like carts in a track.See,everything outside our dimension, that's eternity.eternity looking down on us,Now,to us,it's a sphere,but to them,it's a circle. Have you heard of something called M theory? The theory says that in this dimension we are in, our timeline is straight forward, but outside of our time and space, in the fourth dimension, time does not exist. From this point of view, if we When we can reach that dimension, we will see that our time and space is like a plane, like a statue placed in many positions, and the statues in each position are superimposed on each other to form itself, and our senses are like tracks. Like a car, it goes back and forth. Everything outside of our dimension is eternal. Eternity is watching us. For us, it is a ball, but for them, it is just a circle. 31. So death created time, to grow the things that it would kill, and you are reborn, 32. A child is wonderful, You see, sometimes people mistake a child as an answer for something, you know, like a way to change their story. The answer to a question, such as the medium that changes your own destiny. 33.You, these people, this place, It's like you eat yourfuckin' young and that's all just fine as long as you got something to salute, huh? , As long as someone does something, right? 34. Everybody's got a choice. Everybody's got a choice. 35.Look,as scented meat, And all I had to do was let go... For a moment-when I was stuck in the darkness, there was something, no matter what I was stuck in, or even not conscious, it was a kind of being in the darkness I can feel my whole being fading away, and under the darkness, there is another feeling, a deeper level, very warm, as if it is real, I can feel , I know, I know my daughter, I can feel her, and I just have to let go. Attach the opening song "Far from Any Road" Male: From the dusty mesa Her looming shadow grows Her looming shadow grows Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote She twines She twines her spines up slowly Towards the boiling sun Towards the boiling sun And when I touched her skin My fingers ran with blood My fingers ran with blood In the hushing dusk under a swollen silver moon In the quiet twilight, under the silver full moon, I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom And strange hands halted me,
