“What is straight? A line can be straight, or a street, but the human heart, oh, no, it’s curved like a road through mountains.”
—Tennessee Williams (via brokenmachine)
“Up there in the immensity of the Cosmos, an inescapable perception awaits us. National boundaries are not evident when we view the Earth from space. Fanatical ethnic, religious or national chauvinisms are a little difficult to maintain when we see our planet as a fragile blue crescent fading to become an inconspicuous point of light against the bastion and citadel of the stars.”
—Carl Sagan (via seandanaher) (via itsfullofstars)
“When we’re puzzled we have all the stories that have been handed down from people who had the same problems.”
—A Serious Man (via filmquotes)
A Serious Man
Rabbi Scott: You can’t cut yourself off from the mystical or you’ll be-you’ll remain-completely lost. You have to see these things as expressions of God’s will. You don’t have to like it, of course.
Larry: The boss isn’t always right, but he’s always the boss.
Rabbi Scott: That’s right! Things aren’t so bad! Look at the parking lot, Larry. Just look at that parking lot.

“All that remains is a fate whose outcome alone is fatal. Outside of that single fatality of death, everything, joy or happiness, is liberty. A world remains of which man is the sole master. What bound him was the illusion of another world. The outcome of his thought , ceasing to be renunciatory, flowers in images. It frolics - in myths, to be sure, but myths with no other depth than that of human suffering and like it inexhaustible. Not the divine fable that amuses and blinds, but the terrestial face, gesture, and drama in which are summed up a difficult wisdom and an ephemeral passion.”

Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus (P. 87)
All is not chaos; the experience of the absurd is the proof of man’s uniqueness and the foundation of his dignity and freedom.

“As far as men go, it is not what they are that interests me, but what they can become.”
