Saw a lot of familiar things

The first is to see the old butler in Downton Abbey. The old man is really a playboy. Only after reading the comments did I realize that there are so many familiar faces in it.
Relive the most perfect murder story yet again. Not long ago, I heard Liu Qingyun express it in the disappearing bullet. Is this story really that famous? I know less.
Then, there is the dialogue between the two male protagonists in the museum at the end of the film. Coincidentally, Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize, so a series of his remarks also flooded the Internet. From the dialogue between the two male pigs, I can only think of the sentence "Everything in this world, except that the false ones are true and false, everything else is false."
Logic is an advanced study, well, so is mathematics, and so is philosophy.

The Oxford Murders quotes

  • Arthur Seldom: There is no way of finding a single absolute truth, an irrefutable argument which might help answer the questions of mankind. Philosophy, therefore, is dead, because whereof we cannot speak, thereof we must be silent.

  • Arthur Seldom: Since man is incapable of reconciling mind and matter, he tends to confer some sort of entity on ideas because he cannot bear the notion that the purely abstract only exists in our brain. "The beauty and harmony of a snowflake" - how sweet. "The butterfly that flutters his wings and causes a hurricane on the other side of the world" - we've been hearing about that damn butterfly for decades, but who has been able to predict a single hurricane? Nobody! Tell me something. Where is the beauty and harmony in cancer? What makes a cell suddenly decide to turn itself into a killer, metastasis and destroy the rest of the cells in a healthy body? Does anybody know? No! Because we'd rather think of snowflakes and butterflies than of pain, war, or that book. Why? Because we need to think that life has meaning, that everything is governed by logic and not by mere chance. If I write 2 then 4 then 6, then we feel good because we know that next comes 8. We can foresee it. We are not in the hands of destiny. Unfortunately, however, this has nothing to do with truth. Don't you agree? This is only fear. Sad... but there you go.
