What a precious opportunity to go ashore.

Unfortunately, in the end only Jim came ashore. With his talent, he can continue to create a better life. However, in real life, how many people can successfully land on the shore, and how many people have skills and talents and exert them well? Many drug addicts may not be able to wait for the day when they go ashore. They have already entered and exited prisons several times due to various crimes, or died, and there is no tomorrow. Sometimes people are too confident and they can control themselves; sometimes people are too self-abandoned and exile their lives. Never try.

    Xiao Li’s "riders on the storm" when he was playing basketball is very reminiscent of his other "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Jim Morrison is also a Rimbaud fan (a wonderful connection); he really did have it when he was a teenager. Reiki is a "juvenile spirit" type. After entering middle age, even though I tried my best as always, this kind of aura gradually disappeared.

    When Xiao Li was young, he was so sad and artistic haha

The Basketball Diaries quotes

  • Jim: [Walks up to Swifty] Don't worry, Swifty, I won't rat you out.

    [Walks up to Father McNulty]

    Jim: And in the next life, Father, I'm gonna have the paddle!

    [Walks out]

  • Jim: Know this. There's different types of users of junk. You got your rich dilettante square-ass who dabbles now and then and always has enough money to run off to the Riviera if he feels he's fucking around to the danger point. Street junkies hate these pricks, but they're always suckers, and their money makes them tolerable. Then you got your upper-middle-class Westchester preppies... same as the others, basically. What they're good for is opening their mommy and daddy's eyes to this social virus and putting pressure on the government to do something about it. Then there's us street kids. Start fucking around very young, 13 or so. We think we all got it under control and won't get strung out. This rarely works. I'm living proof. But in the end, you just got to see the junk as another 9-to-5 gig. The hours are just a bit more inclined to shadows.
