Totally Free and Clear

It's really totally free and clear in the end of the story. I'm deeply depressed and sorrowed. What's the happiness? What are the right things we human being pursuing? What's the meaning of life? Happiness is satisfying with what u have now and what u can get or achieve after ur struggle. Happy times were gone, Happiness are always on the way. Why should/must we catch up with those out of our range? Don't be too serious, nor too much desire for life. Treating life with leniency is forgiving urself. Do not double the hard & dark in ur life. "Seize the day", to some extence, is little of hedonism but a clear choice. Cherish what u have and be content with what the God awards u. Have a small goal, fulfill it, then u will get a tramendous surprise and be happier.

Nowadays, more and more people living in metroplis seem to trap into a twisty life. We work harder, earn more $, pay even more for living, including the health and the life. When u step ur first foot in this life, u could not stop whether u wanna and get deeper and deeper. It moves u mechanically. U r bounded by all around, housing, feeding, educating, promoting, and entertaining. U'll devote all ur life to make up all of these. Unconciously, ur getting older. When u look back, u find there is nothing but vanity. Eventually, u get the free u want, and u find ur right free, not just free from housing, feeding, educating, promoting and entertaining, but free from the truth of life. It's real clear at that time.

So, please be kind to urself. There should be not more kinder in the world. Life itself is too serious, and there is no need for us to add more.

Death of a Salesman quotes

  • Willy Loman: My father lived many years in Alaska. He was an adventurous man! We've got quite a little streak of self-reliance in our family, Howard. I thought I'd go out with my older brother and try to locate him and maybe even settle in the North with the old man. And I was almost decided to go - when I met a salesman in the Parker House. His name was Dave Singleman. And he was eighty-four years old, and he'd drummed merchandise in thirty-one states. And old Dave, he'd go up to his room, y'understand, put on his green velvet slippers - I'll never forget - and pick up the phone and call the buyers, without ever leaving his room, at the age of eighty-four, he made his living. And when I saw that, I realized that selling was the greatest career that a man could want. Because what could be more satisfying than to be able to go, at the age of eighty-four, into twenty or thirty different cities, and pick up his phone and be remembered and loved and helped by so many different people? You know, when - when he died, by the way he died the death of a salesman, in his green velvet slippers in the smoker of the NewYork, New Haven and Hartford, going into Boston - when he died, hundreds of salesmen and buyers were at his funeral. Things were sad on a lotta trains - for months after that. You see, in those days there was personality in it, Howard. There was respect and comradeship and gratitude in it. Today, it's all cut and dried, and there's no chance for bringing friendship to bear or personality. You see what I mean? They don't know me anymore.

  • Willy Loman: I'm talking about your father! There were promises made across this desk! You mustn't tell me you've got people to see. I put thirty-four years into this firm, Howard, and now I can't pay my insurance! You can't eat the orange and throw the peel away - a man is not a piece of fruit!
