This young man …

"This young man … is expressing himself with such tenderness it is enough to break my heart. He calls to the audience. They call back … He is directing a choir. They are the choir … I can't recall ever having seen anything like it in my life … Out of the hours of Live Aid that I saw by the end of the day, the high point was witnessing the magic of U2. They moved me as nothing else moved me."

- JOAN BAEZ watching U2's performance at Live Aid

tyto jalové a idiotské dny
jalové a idiotské dny
dny plaňky, dny plevel
prázdné a nestravitelné
dny košťály
bílé - udivené a nepotřebné dny
tyto dny
nepravidelné a nevyrovnané
nevzdělané a spolu srostlé

in a sea of guilt

"It's actually sort of indulgent to just swim in a sea of guilt because you're not really helping anyone. It's important to forgive yourself and then do better so that you can be productive. So my motto is simply face up to it and try to do better."
- Patti Smith (April 11, 2011)

myšlienka

J. Topol

"Ale já se bál... být na světe tak, jak ona chtěla, dát jí to, být tu v někom dalším... ztrácel jsem svou sílu tím, že jsem hrál, v různých převlecích a postavách jsem si ohmatával svět, protože jsem byl plný strachu pro přímý dotek."

"Right in the middle of a contradiction, that’s the place to be."

Shirley

"Bože, ja robím divnú hudbu, akoby niekto zmiešal NIN a Roxette a hral to Vladimír Mečiar na synťáku..."

Rilke

Tennessee Williams

"Ach bože, nemohli bychom se už konečně jednou zastavit? Prosím tě, dopřej nám to už. Je tady takové ticho!" (Hanna. Noc s leguánem.)

"All your Western theologies, the whole mythology of them, are based on the concept of God as a senile delinquent." (Shannon. Noc s leguánem.)

"Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going."

A Streetcar Named Desire (1947)
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955)
The Night of the Iguana (1961)

Niterné Williamsovy sympatie ovšem samozřejmě patří trosečníkum života a vyděděncum společnosti, a proč jim ve finálním efektu patří i ty naše, patrně nejlépe objasnil Arthur Miller. Proč nás tedy podle tohoto velikého dramatika tolik vábí "ono kouzlo ztraceného, přesto však posvátného ztroskotance?" Proto, že všem připomíná "naše vlastní potlačené pudy, něhu, již jsme opustili, a svátost lidského ducha."

Days go on and on, they don't end

"The days go on and on... they don't end. All my life needed was a sense of some place to go..."

How many of you Travis' Bickles are out there?

"Now I see this clearly. My whole life is pointed in one direction. There never has been a choice for me."

At the Berlinale 2010, De Niro, Scorsese and Lars von Trier announced plans to work on the sequel, with a shoot planned for late 2010. Would be very interesting to see what they come up with, if so.
