但是寫到最後，這篇其實還是關於愛情與人性的思索。我便想
保留在這個關於愛情的主題之下，一起與各位分享。

From my view in reality this guy is not as courageous as he
regards himself. I admire those who dares to love and bear
the loss of everything out of their scandals. I feel that human
beings are very weak

"It's about a man who fell in love with a dream he lost, and who
remained in love with it." Jeremy Irons

He chooses freely, though, and, in doing so, he is free to fall.


Really? You really think that the theme in Lolita, Damage, or the
like is about courage, guts, and love? Maybe this is addressed
in female's perspective from thier very own room with a view?

I don't know. I don't think Damge and Lolita are about love, nor
courage, not to mention morality.

Nabokov meant to defy the laws of the moral universe and test the
limits of human psychology, therefore he teased us by creating
a man whom we, at the same time, disgust and sympathy for .

It is about men's quest and struggle . The quest and struggle
could be as noble as those of Man of La Mancha's, Dream the
Impossible Dream, or could be as 八卦 as to your reminiscence
of 民進黨立委鄭余鎮先生's regretless love to 小嬋. Both of
them don't know why, but the quest has to be continue, hence
the struggle. Maybe love, maybe guts, all Christmas trees need
color lightbulbs for decoration anyway.

Yes, perhaps every hunter has his own weakness, but when confronting
with unknown intoxicating rewards along with frightful consequences -
it is simply exciting. The beauty lies in men's mind constantly
trying to rationalize and convince themselves that they can cheat
their ultimate fate.


True love has never been hand in hand with guts nor courage.
The world moves on; everything we have been drawn into eventually
becomes part of the ashes of time. Or does it?
Rememer the final scene from 花樣年華? Set in Angkor Wat as a kind of
epilogue, suggests that love, even if never fully expressed,
somehow lasts forever.
