The cruelty of human nature, the knife sees blood!
Catharine 2022-03-25 09:01:20
Great immortal work! Not only about journalistic ethics, but also about the cruelty of human nature, and this kind of cruelty is carried out in the name of kindness: the male protagonist wants to save people and achieve both fame and fame, but in the end, he draws water, because the goodness of saving people will always be there. Gaining fame and fame is lost in evil, like a seesaw, which sinks when you choose one end and the other. Looking at the spectators who came from all directions, they played guitars and cared, but "everyone in the world is benefiting", how much of that excitement is respect for life? The lively big field is like a chattering temple fair, which is in stark contrast to the bleakness of the fading life of the trapped people. I love this one, a truly epoch-making classic!

Charles Tatum: When the history of this sun-baked Siberia is written, these shameful words will live in infamy: No chopped chicken liver! No garlic pickles. No Lindys. No Madison Square Garden... no Yogi Berra! Whattya know about Yogi Berra, Miss Deverich?
Miss Deverich: I beg your pardon?
Charles Tatum: Yogi Berra!
Miss Deverich: Yogi? Why, it's a sort of religion, isn't it?
Charles Tatum: You bet it is! A belief in the New York Yankees!
