The contradiction of the middle class is that when all the universal material needs are met, people start to want more.
To dream, to be affirmed. self-actualization.
When you are satisfied with material things, you are also bound by material things.

When you are mentally mature and financially independent, how can you just be content with pursuing more material things.
And the dream, not everyone's dream is a trip that says go.
It is simply immoral to abandon talent.

But not everyone can achieve their dreams.
In order to live, who is not deliberately exhausted and exhausted.

Who is not giving up everything. For a little paltry return, a car, a house.

Of course you can drink, smoke, race cars, find women, buy luxury goods, and all kinds of pleasures.

Slightly smarter kids don't indulge in these.
These ephemeral fast-moving consumer goods are nothing but desires that society has instilled in us. They say these things make people happy, so we don't doubt it.
But we are not there yet.
So there is struggle, so pain, division, conflict, withdrawal. plunged into darkness.

Who wants to be successful, how boring success is.
Losers are much more interesting.

Therefore, with such a relationship, two crazy people can see the light in each other.
Others see only smoke, I see fire.
When death is close to me, I just want to be close to you.

There is no despair, no expectation, in a white and dark life, how can one redeem oneself?

Veronika Decides to Die quotes

  • Veronika: I want to die on my own terms.

  • Veronika: I hate you.

    Dr. Blake: Really? Tell me about it.

    Veronika: Fine. I hate your stupid desk. And I hate your ugly ties. And I hate your ridiculous socks. And I hate everyone locked up in this place. And I hate my parents for spending their very last penny to keep me in this zoo. God forbid they should ever, for one moment, live their own lives. Is that what they came here for? To be the fucking same as everybody else? And I hate the jerks in my office who think the money they earn makes them "the shit". And more than anything I hate the zombies on the subway who have forgotten all of their dreams or the fact that they ever had any to begin with!

    Dr. Blake: I have some terrifying news for you.

    Veronika: What could be more terrifying than this?

    Dr. Blake: You sound like you might be feeling better. Answer me honestly, please. Doesn't it feel better to feel better?
