Giving myself a little purpose for the day, for the year and for life to not feel lost without a purpose and make myself feel good about doing something and fool myself while the ultimate purpose of life evades me which probably doesn't even exist
A guy told me one time "don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner"
Notice how the entire conversation changed from "E20 will save you lots of money" from "pure petrol will cost you more."
We have been pickpocketed, my friends.
Akira Kurosawa recounting the unforgettable experience of watching Solaris with Andrei Tarkovsky:
“Andrei Tarkovsky was sitting in the corner of the screening room watching Solaris with me, but he got up as soon as the film was over and looked at me with a shy smile. I said to him, ‘It’s very good. It’s a frightening movie.’ He seemed embarrassed but smiled happily. Then the two of us went to a film union restaurant and toasted with vodka. Tarkovsky, who does not usually drink, got completely drunk and cut off the speakers at the restaurant, then began singing the theme of Seven Samurai at the top of his voice. I joined in, eager to keep up. At that moment, I was very happy to be on Earth.”
