1. Sean——So, if I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinny on Every art book ever written. Michelangelo. You know a lot about him: life's work, political aspirations, him and the Pope, sexual orientation, the whole works, right? Indulge in sex, you know him well, right? But I bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You've never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling…seeing that. You never stood there, looking up at the famous painting on the ceiling, did you? But I have seen it. If I ask you about women, you'll probably give me a syllabus of your personal favorites. You may have even been laid a few times. But you can't tell me what it feels like to wake up next to a woman and feel truly happy. If I ask about women, you can tell me as much as you can. You may have been in bed several times, but you can’t tell the true joy that comes from your heart when you wake up next to a woman. . You're a tough kid. And I ask you about war, you'd probably, uh, throw Shakespeare at me, right? "Once more onto the breach, dear friends..." Shakespeare, recite "to the battlefield together, dear friend" But you've never been near one. You've never held your best friend's head in your lap…and watched him gasp his last breath, lookin' to you for help. You have never personally been in battle, never tried to hold your close friend's head in your arms, watch him take the last breath, stare at you, and dying to ask you for help. I ask you about love, you'll probably quote me a sonnet. But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable…… I’ve been wholeheartedly devoted, Known someone that could level you with her eyes……feelin' like God put an angel on earth just for you……who could rescue you from the depths of hell…… The heart of the other person is like God arranging an angel to go down to the earth and only dedicated to you, saving you from the abyss of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel……to have that love for her, be there forever…through anything…through cancer. You have never experienced the feeling of caring for her in every way. You have never been committed to staying together with her sincerely. You know that she is terminally ill and do not hesitate. You have never tried it. The feeling of losing a loved one. And you wouldn't know about sleeping sittin' up in a hospital room for two months, holding her hand, because the doctors could see in your eyes that the terms "visiting hours" don't apply to you. You also never experienced Staying with her in front of her hospital bed, holding her delicate hand tightly, because the doctor knows that you don’t care about the “visiting time”. You don't know about real loss……'cause that only occurs when you love something more than you love yourself. I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much. ..Because you only realize when you love someone more than yourself. I suspect that you have never given such love. I look at you. I don't see an intelligent, confident man. I see a cocky, scared-shitless kid. A child of inner fear But you're a genius, Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you are a genius, Will. This is beyond doubt. No one can fully realize your depth. But you presume to know everything about me, because you saw a painting of mine. You ripped my fuckin' life apart. But you presume to know everything about me, because you saw a painting of mine. You ripped my fuckin' life apart. Your crazy words have ruined my life! You're an orphan, right? Do you think I know the first thing about how hard your life has been? How you feel? Who you are? Because I read Oliver Twist? Does that encapsulate you? But do you think I can see through your miserable life and know everything about you just because I have read "Orphans in the Mist"? Could it simplify your life? Personally, I don't give a shit about all that. Because you know what? I can't learn anything from you I can't read in some fuckin' book. Personally, I don't give a shit about all that. Because you know? I can't get to know you bit by bit through some broken books. Unless, you wanna talk about you...who you are. Then I'm fasciated. I'm in. But you don't want to do that, do you? You're terrified of what you might say. Unless you talk about yourself first, tell me who you are. So I am fascinated by it, and I am willing to help you. But you don’t want to do that, do you? You are even afraid that you will be scared by what you say. 2. (Sean explains the perfection of love to Will.) Will——This girl's, like, perfect right now. I don't wanna ruin that. Will: In my eyes, this girl is perfect now. I don't want to destroy this perfection. Sean——Maybe you're perfect right now. Maybe you don't wanna ruin that. But I think that's a super philosophy. That way, you can go through your entire life without ever having to really know anybody. Shaun: Maybe Now you are perfect, maybe you don't want to destroy your own perfection. But I think this is a wonderful philosophy, because in this way you don't need to know anyone for the rest of your life. People call these things "imperfections," but they're not. That's the good stuff. And then we get to choose who we let into our weird little worlds. People call these things "imperfections," but they're not. "Imperfect" is a good thing, we can choose who to let into our small world. You're not perfect. And let me save you the suspense.This girl you met, she isn't perfect either.But the question is whether or not you're perfect for each other.That' s the whole deal. That's what intimacy is all about. Now you can know everything in the world, but the only way you're findin' out that one is by givin' it a shot. To sap your appetite. What I want to say is that the girl you know is not perfect, but the key is whether you can adapt to each other perfectly. Intimacy is such a thing. You can understand everything in the world, but the only way to get to the root is to try it yourself. 3. (Sean's conservative choice about his wife's death.) Sean-You ever think about gettin' remarried?-My wife's dead. -Have you considered remarrying? -My wife is dead. Will- Hence the word "remarried."-She's dead.-That's why it is called "remarried." -My wife is dead. Will-Well, I think that's a super philosophy, Sean.. I mean, that way, you can actually go through the rest of your life...without ever really knowing anybody.-I think this is a wonderful philosophy. .. I mean, in this way, you don't need to know anyone for the rest of your life. 4. (Sean tells Will that he has no regrets for love.) That's why I'm not talkin' right now about some girl I saw at a bar 20 years ago...and how I always regretted not goin' over and talkin' to her. That's why I won't regret my whole life for not talking to her in the bar. I don't regret the 18 years I was married to Nancy. I don't regret the six years I had to give up counseling when she got sick, and I don't regret the last years when she got really sick. And I sure as hell don't regret missin' a damn game. That's regret. I don’t regret the 18 years I’ve been with Nancy, I don’t regret giving up counseling to take care of her serious illness, and I don’t regret the last few years of silently sticking to it, let alone Will regret the game that I missed. It's just a pity, nothing more. 5. (Will explains his talent to his girlfriend.) Will——I look at a piano, I see a bunch of keys, three pedals and a box of wood.But Beethoven, Mozart-- They saw it. They could just play .I couldn't paint you a picture. I probably can't hit the ball out of Fenway. Will: When I looked at the piano, I could only see a bunch of keys, pedals and wood. But for Beethoven, Mozart and others-they can play the piano as soon as they see it. I don't know how to draw, and I can't even play the ball. Skylan——But you can do my O-chem paper in under an hour. Skylan: But you will finish my O-chem paper in under an hour. Will——Right. Well, I mean, when it came to stuff like that, I could always just play. Yes, I have this kind of talent, this kind of thing is handy.  6. (Professor Lambeau hates iron but not steel, and is extremely disappointed in Will's crazy provocation of burning paper.) Most days I wish I never met you, because then I could sleep at night.I didn't have to walk around with the knowledge that there was someone like you out there. I didn't have to watch you throw it all away. I always wish I never met you, so I would be able to sleep soundly every night. Don't worry about someone like you out there. I just can't bear to watch you squander your talent like this. 7. (Sean explains the meaning of "spiritual mate" to Will) -Do you have a soul mate?-Define that.-Somebody who challenges you.I'm talking about someone who opens up things for you, touches your soul.- Do you have a "spiritual mate"? -What's the meaning? -Those who can match you. I mean those who can open your heart and touch your heart. -I got.- Who?- I got plenty.Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Frost, O'Connor, Kant, Pope, Locke--That's great. They're all dead.- Not to me they're not. -有啊. -Who? -There are many. Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Frost, O'Connor, Kant, Pope, Locke...-good, but they are all dead. -It's not like that for me. -You don't have a lot of dialogue with them. You can't give back to them. That's what I'm saying. You'll never have that kind of relationship in a world...where you're always afraid to take the first step, because all you see is every negative thing ten miles down the road. -You can't talk to them, you can't respond to their ideas. This is what I mean. You will never have a soul mate right now, because you always see negative things, but in fact it is far away. 8. (Sean questioned Will about the pursuit of life.) Sean——There's honor in takin' that 40-minute train ride so those college kids could come in in the morning and their floors are clean. Sean: You ride every morning A 40-minute train ride to the university for cleaning, creating a tidy classroom for the students. Of course there is the honorable glory of labor. I just have a little question here. You could be a janitor anywhere. Why did you work at the most prestigious technical college in the whole fuckin' world? Why did you sneak around at night and finish other people's formulas...that only one or two people in the world could do and then lie about it?' I just have a small question. You can be a worker anywhere, but why do you choose the most prestigious science and technology institution in the world? Why did you secretly calculate the equations in the world that only one or two people can solve at night, and then lie and refuse to admit it afterwards? Cause I don't see a lot of honor in that. ! 9. (Will's best friend Chuck confided in his sincere hope.) Every day I come by your house, and I pick you up. We go out and have a few drinks and few laughs, and it's great. You know what the best part of my day is? It's for about ten seconds: from when I pull up to the curb and when I get to your door.'Cause I think maybe I'll get up there and I'll knock on the door and you won 't be there.No "good-bye," no "see ya later." No nothing. You just left.I don't know much, but I know that. I come to your place to pick you up every day. We went out to spend a lot of time and had a great time. But do you know what is the best moment of my day? About ten seconds: the time from parking to walking to the door of your residence. Because whenever I knock on the door, I hope you are not in the house. There is no such thing as "goodbye" or "see you tomorrow", you don't have to say anything, that's how you left. I don't know much, but I know these things very well. 10. (In the last lesson, Sean sincerely relieved Will from the demons.) Sean-It's not your fault... Sean: It's not your fault...
