"...we all want to be problemless. To fix ourselves. We look for some magic solution to make us all better. But none of us really knows what we're doing. And why is that so bad? That's all the humans can do. Guess. Try. Hope. Justin, I just pray you don't fool yourself into thinking you've got the answer. Because that's bullshit. The trick...is living without an answer. I think...I think." - Thumbsucker (2005)
This is a wonderful movie and I thoroughly recommend it. I never thought such insightful words could come out of Keanu Reeves' mouth...but there they are. To all those people who think they have found the answer, who think they have found God... you're fooling yourselves. But that's fine, the problem is believing that people who are content with living without an answer, or people who have been fooled into believing they have a different answer, will be punished...I think. |

I saw that movie last week. I agree that it was pretty damn good.
I do think this Keanu Reeves line is pretty insightful too: "Woah..." Keanu Reeves, The Matrix 1999 |

I feel like that every day. The more I learn about the actual roots of Christianity, the more I think "woah..." when I talk to my dad, the preacher.

Completely off topic, but I think "Quasimofo" is one of the greatest user names I've ever seen anywhere.
