Life belongs to the brave

I was a little moved after watching it.
In the twilight of life, I am afraid of aging, and I am afraid of the absence of honor. It seems that all the meaning of life has been eroded by time and become rotten. I don't know what my old age will be like, hopefully there's still friendship, and love. This is life, not the repetition of eating-sleeping day after day.
Life belongs to the brave.
Maybe real life is full of compromises, insincere words, and compromises, but there are always times or two that require you to muster up the courage to accept the helplessness of reality and still struggle to be yourself. Not being a reckless man, but sticking to your heart with persistence and being for yourself.
If you want to calm yourself down, this movie might be a good choice.

Quartet quotes

  • Jean: I'm going to say something very rude to you: fuck you.

  • Reginald Paget: [to a class of teenagers] Opera is: when a guy's stabbed in the back, instead of bleeding, he sings. It seems to me, after much research, that rap is when a guy is stabbed in the back, and instead of bleeding, he talks. Er, rhythmically, even with feeling. But because rap's *spoken*, the feeling is sort of held in check: all on one note.
