Somehow Keats will survive without you

Audrey did it bloody well, yet I still wonder how Mrs. Campbell would have performed it. I am not a student of it, but theater has lost some grace if you ask me.

My Fair Lady - I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face/The Ending

Modest plainness sets off sprightly wit?

True Wit is Nature to advantage dress'd.

 What oft was thought, but ne'er so well express'd;

 Something whose truth convinced at sight we find,

 That gives us back the image of our mind.

 As shades more sweetly recommend the light,

 So modest plainness sets off sprightly wit.

-Alexander Pope

Amelia: You know what Napoleon gave Josephine as a wedding present?

It was a gold locket. And on the inside, he made an inscription, "Destiny".

Destiny.

Amelia: I have to go. 

Viktor Navorski: I have to stay. 
Amelia: Story of my life. 
Viktor Navorski: Me too. 

The First Subjectless Post

Probably I and Zero could be at peace, if only someone could stop the sound double-doors swinging every couple of minutes.
Did I ever tell you, I hate Thursdays!

Money Ball Ending Scene

Lurved a movie so much after quite some time :-)

Dee is gone!

To truly understand a person, sincerity and wisdom ain't enough. You at least need one more ingredient called 'Perspective'. 


If you are not where they are, then you can't see the picture the way they see it, and hence would fail to understand their reactions. And your conclusions about them would most likely be wrong. 
You would see people say that they are understanding, and respectful of others views; they actually mean totally the opposite. To understand someone else, and to see it from their eyes, is not a choice that you make. Because to be where they are, they spent their whole life. And it takes exactly that: a whole life to reach there, to see it from their eyes, and to understand them. Sincerity and wisdom fall too short of it!

Goodbye friend. I, and Zero will miss you, a lot!

A not so random thought

They have lost someone who truly loved them, and yet they sleep like they have no care in the world. I lost someone who never loved me, and yet not a thing in the world seems to induce comfort...cheers to the peace in my heart and the sleep in my eyes.

An Other Thousand Nights?

Not today, not tomorrow, probably not in this month, but some day, she will chance to look out, and see the light  coming out of this window. And she will say, "He is still there!". Isn't it enough excuse to be here, for an other thousand nights?


From "The Old Train Station".

Our Cilantro

He says, "this Cilantro will raise his head, tear off the face of this earth, and stand tall and beautiful. And its fragrance will enchant the whole world. No matter how nascent and fragile it appearances be!"

Snow And Java

Dee is looking for the pin for her easy pass, and wants me to look other way :). Amr is teaching how to translate a flow chart to a Java program to a student. Beautiful snow is falling in an ecstatic rythym and I am enjoying nescafe with Tutku chocolate cookies. And you are exactly where you have been, always :)

Morning

I am sitting outside in the snow, its not much bit its soothing in pain. Hope I can go to bed soon. Also, I attended this lecture by this apparently good professor and here is what I noted, it has been 35 mins and he has done nothing, and he has said nothing useful. In the same time amount JK would have made 15 definitions, 8 remarks, 7 observations, 2 proofs, 10 examples plus he would have felt really sorry by making us bored by doing "nothing " Sometimes its good to go such random lectures to just remind you the quality of your favorite teacher.

New Year Resolution 2012

1. After having a small discussion with a friend last night, I started feeling guilty for downloading movies and songs online. I now believe that it is practically steeling. I won't do that again. 2. Considering my behavior and its effects on my time management, I have decided that I will not watch any movies and shows that I have watched before (its good bye from me south park!) . 3. I will have answer to at least one of the six big questions in my life, and it better not be 42 :) Not much, but I guess lets see what we have at the end of 2012.
