It is a blessing to be able to record my own memories, whether in the form of images, images, words or music. Although life is only a tiny link in the evolutionary chain, after all, the record proves the greatness of existence.
Memories of Rome:

Everyone who understands Rome begins with a shocking history: that 200-year-old stone, I guess his history will be longer. I'm very happy to say that I, who didn't know that glorious history, really started to know Rome from the saying "all roads lead to Rome". For many years after that, the level of awareness has stayed at a sentence with the same meaning as this sentence, called "all roads goes to Rome". More than six years ago, I learned about a column called Ionic, and I knew that it was completely different from the bucket arch at the door, and also different from the other Taoric column. Staring at Fellini's broken stone, I seem to vaguely see the grandeur and pomp of Rome.

Because Fellini's Rome at that time was during World War II, so many descriptions are very similar to the scenes in Ba Jin's "Cold Night", I think. A group of people (I don't want to mention the word class) are entertaining, some people are practicing, and many ordinary people are living, sticking to their original lives, and the war has only brought more accidents of normal life. - The war in my eyes is a more sensitive society.

The description of the subway section has aroused my thinking about the subway for a long time: Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Milan, Rome, Berlin, Genoa... Or origins, but underground transportation is a public behavior after all, and making the private behavior of tunnels public cannot but say that it is another progress of human beings.

Roma quotes

  • Narrator: This gentlemen is a Roman. A Roman from dawn to dusk. As jealous of Rome as if she were his wife. He is afraid that in my film I might present her in a bad light. He is telling me that I should show only the better side of Rome: her historical profile, her monuments - not a bunch fo homosexuals or my usual enormous whores.

  • Narrator: These young people have other worries. They criticize their parents, the educational system, the government, and, while they're at it, they also criticize the film I'm making.

    Young Person: [to Fellini] We wanted to ask you if your film would show Rome from an objective point of view.

    Narrator: They would like to see their problems and those of industrial workers discussed in this film. Well, these are certainly real problems and one should try and help resolve them. But, look, this film director is not even able to solve his own personal problems and, then, he may be wrong, but, he thinks we all do what we're able to do
