having a lot of thoughts and feelings about this comparison

Love that Oppenheimer is a deeply disturbing horror movie about a man forced to accept that he is, in a person, the representative manifestation of mankind’s evil in committing one of the greatest horrors of human history - LITERALLY acting as the modern Prometheus, tormented by his sins for the remainder of time. Knowing that he will never be pitied and his actions will forever be utterly unforgivable because the blood of genocide and the potential of total human annihilation will eternally drip from his hands.

But also the simultaneous indictment by the film that to blame a single person for the Manhattan Project is to refuse to accept your own capacity for great evil if the ends ever seem to justify the means, and the culpability of every member of a species that lets itself create something so unspeakably terrible.

Hate that twitter’s take on such a nuanced and brilliantly handled examination of those issues is “movie bad because protagonist not evil enough.”

"The first thing that came to me was I didn't want to make something obvious for my solo...This solo album is purely, entirely mine, so my thoughts play the biggest role. The difference is that I have the biggest input in it...while working as a group, when we filmed NCT 127 music videos, there were many times when it was a lot about my face shot just close up. There are a lot of those moments, like 0.1 seconds of [a close up shot] of my face. I was that kind of member, so up until now, if I showed that image a lot, there are more things I can show beyond that as well. I've got lots more to show...so what I thought was I wanted to do something different from what I've been showing since debut, different from what people expect of me." - Jaehyun, "The Journey of 'J' | Part 2"

No good decision was ever made in a swivel chair.

- General George S. Patton

Patton never minced his words because he lived them out. The great World War Two general believed he could not lead his men effectively unless he got his hands dirty himself. That way he could understand exactly what he was asking of them. Hence his belief that a good leader should, “Do everything you ask of those you command.” His inspirational style and aura rubbed off on people fighting beside him, and it came from setting a personal example.

With every choice you made, you took responsibility. That it was irreversible, irretrievable, that it would screw tight the lid, prohibit the path to more choices. That out of all those liberating, mesmerizing options you could choose something bony, fetid, barren. And with that decision, you would have inflicted unhappiness (tragedy, even!) with your very own hand.
