happy but not happy

I love Bertolucci,
the crescent moon and camel bells in the desert;



the golden light in the sunset,
the wilderness of beautiful women and handsome men,
Ryuichi Sakamoto;



I don’t like liars and thieves,
I don’t like malaria flies and sandstorms,
I don't like that there is no one to help in a difficult situation.
"Death separates loved ones forever" is really annoying.




I'm not Sanmao, I don't have Jose,
I can't tell "Story of the Sahara";

I'm not Sister Mei, I don't have Lei handsome,
I've never walked in, let alone "Out of Africa";

I'm not Ralph, I'm Without "The English Patient",
I would never leave my loved one alone in the desert;

I am not Lawrence, I have no Arab, and
I will not die for irrelevant aliens.




I only have a bland love, and
I can only stay true to each other.
The literary and artistic youth who are self-inflicted and sad,
always make me sad for a pound and incomprehensible.




Wealth and honor are not my wish, whose tears and sorrows are flying
under the sky that cannot be expected to cover the emperor's hometown. I am worried

    Because I don't know how to evaluate this unintelligible film, I can only say that the dust and flies in it are really shocking.

The Sheltering Sky quotes

  • Port Moresby: Could you be happy here?

    Kit Moresby: Happy? Happy? How do you mean?

    Port Moresby: I mean, could you like it here?

    Kit Moresby: How do I know? God, I wish you wouldn't ask me questions like this! Really! I can't answer them. What do you want me to say? "Yes, I'll be happy in Africa"? I like Ain Krorfa so much, but I can't tell whether I want to stay for a month or I want to leave tomorrow.

    Tunner: You couldn't leave tomorrow even if you wanted to. Can't get any information about how to get out of this place. No buses, not even a fruit truck. Nobody speaks English. Anybody for a nightcap?

  • Kit Moresby: Is that the plan?

    Port Moresby: More or less, yes.

    Kit Moresby: More or less?

    Port Moresby: Uh... Less, actually.
