Achievements, dreams, and educational backgrounds have nothing to do with previous labels and identities. The most important thing is who you are and what abilities you have. As at the beginning of the film, Professor Murray has no educational background, and even dropped out of school to work at the age of 14 because of his livelihood, but his proficiency and familiarity with multiple languages ​​still shocked the audience. So, don't be bound by these shells, follow your dreams bravely, plan to accomplish your goals, there is always hope for the future.

Who your partner is is important. I like Murray's wife very much. She can express her emotions, and she will resolutely abandon her original life to support Murray's work. She is Murray's very strong backing. She also educates the children very well. I think that with her here, Professor Murray's heart will be much, much more stable. In addition to the stressful and boring work, she will be a clear spring in Murray's heart, infiltrating his heart and spleen, and making his heart comfortable; she and the children are also Professor Murray. energy perpetual motion machine.

    Originally read in 2014. From "Let us begin at aardvark and never stop until we reach zymurgy" to "Sometimes when we push away, that is when we most needed to be resisted". If love...then what? To have someone to share that ecstasy found in words. Now I know what awaits me.

    From the "Dictionary" and "The Book of the Boat" to this OED editor "Legend", I really have no resistance to this movie. Behind the turmoil of the great era, the dictionaries loaded with national traditions are no longer shelved, penetrating the nostalgia of generations, and spanning historical time and space. Will we still be touched by a piece of sweet fragrance? Of course, what is intensively presented on the screen are those editors who have been forgotten or even unknown. Their bright heads and perseverance, resistance or silence, in today’s context are more like an interpretation of the "old world" civilization. The lyrical elegy that is spread by the fire, the tune is always revolving with the phrase "It lives on". I couldn't help thinking of Lu Lao Shenxian and the "English-Chinese Dictionary", as well as the dictionary editors who raced against time day and night.

The Professor and the Madman quotes

  • Dr. William Chester Minor: It's freedom, Mrs. Merrett. I can fly out of this place on the backs of books. I've gone to the end of the world on the wings of words... . When I read, no one is after me. When I read, I am the one who is chasing--chasing after God.

  • Dr. William Chester Minor: Have you gotten to the "I's" by now? I had some to add to your words. But I can't seem to... I can't seem to find my pens.
