“有一天,我们都将被世界完美地馴服”

《生活》的时候没察觉,回想的时候才发现。

smell like books

In this fast moving cityscape that’s continuously building upwards rather than developing sidewards, how I wish for our own version of Samcheongdong – an oasis i can run away to when i want to smell like books and when coffee drinking is a fulfillment rather than an enhancement.

das ist living, not livelihood.

traveling

“never refuse an invitation, never resist the unfamiliar, never fail to be polite and never outstay the welcome.” – from the movie, The Beach (2000)

just finished watching the Danny Boyle classic. a flash thought about traveling – traveling traveling, not as in vacation traveling. traveling is a selfish activity – it’s an activity which you hope to cover as many miles within you, as your feet does.

In light of the national day – the morning after

“There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society with a large segment of people in that society who feel that they have no stake in it; who feel that that have nothing to lose. People who have stake in their society, protect that society, but when they don’t have it, they unconsciously want to destroy it.” – Martin Luther King Jr
