Quotes from dead poets society that I love

Carpe Diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.

We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.

I Stand Upon My Desk To Remind Myself That We Must Constantly Look At Things In A Different Way.

Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try.

You must strive to find your own voice because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are going to find it all.

But only in their dreams can men be truly free. 'twas always thus and always thus will be.

Now, we all have a great need for acceptance. But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go, "That's baaaaad." Robert Frost said, "Two roads diverged in a wood and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.

We were romantics. We didn’t just read poetry, we let it drip from our tongues like honey. Spirits soared, women swooned, and gods were created, gentleman. Not a bad way to spend an evening, eh?

This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your hearts and souls.

No, I've been calm all my life! If I don't do something, it's gonna kill me.

Sucking the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bone.

The only way to conquer death is to live every single day to the fullest.

It's not the idea of death that frightens us, but the notion that we aren't living our lives to the fullest.

I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.

No matter where you go, you're dealing with yourself.

The cop in Chungking Express asks, "When did everything start having an expiration date?" while looking through cans of pineapple with the expiration date of May 1st. It's a metaphor for the expiration of the love he had with his ex-girlfriend, and expiration dates appear as a motif throughout the film which can be seen when he says, "If memories could be canned, would they also have expiry dates? If so, I hope they last for centuries."

This got me thinking about it. I feel things having an expiry date is one of the most beautiful phenomena because that fleeting nature of precious moments is what gives us the courage and desire to experience it all and make it worthwhile. And also, the inevitable fate of expiration pushes us to cherish whatever we have and live life to the fullest.

This is just like troy (2004) when achilles said "The gods envy us. They envy us because we're mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again."

I saw happiness.

Happiness that should have been mine.

But I was wrong.

His notebook reveals that he never had the life that I envied.

The family life that he craves one minute he rails against the next, demanding freedom.

His mind... his mind is a divided one.

His soul is restless.

His wife and child, tormented by his fickle and contradictory nature.

The prestige (2006), Christopher Nolan

Film

The truth I'm trying to preach is that filmmakers are judged by their final product. It doesn't even matter if it took us three months or three years, they only respect the final product. So, forget everything about the people outside. Never have a single ounce of respect for anyone that doesn't have respect for your passion. - David Maxwell

I just started watching the bastard son and the devil himself. It's a little more violent than I normally watch but so far a good show. I honestly thought the question would be more important to the plot was I started this but who knows, maybe they could come back

Daydream delusion, limousine eyelash

Oh baby, with your pretty face

Drop a tear in my wineglass.

Look at those big eyes

See what you mean to me

Sweet-cakes and milkshakes

I'm a delusion angel

I'm a fantasy parade.

I want you to know what I think

Don't want you to guess anymore

You have no idea where I came from

We have no idea where we're going

Lodged in life

Like branches in a river

Flowing downstream

Caught in the current

I carry you, You'll carry me

That's how it could be

Don't you know me?

Don't you know me by now?

Expectations

Expectations are not meant to pressure you, my dear. They are your motivation, your ally. They're the reason you keeping moving when it's dark, your light in a cave. And the rest of them… They are like you. They will mistake and you will make mistakes. But eventually all of you will smile at your accomplishments. - David Maxwell
