Saw this film yesterday and it really made me think...
Just read this quote and reflect... try to answer it, and i'll try it too in my next post...=)
"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "Oh me! Oh life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, Oh me, Oh life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?"

My verse will be the one which can fill each and every human heart. Because i believe in poetry, in life and pricipally in friendship. Because our friendship is true.

My verse will be: "The more you love, the more you play" because Love is a Dangerous Game.
