“The kind of feeling when everything you're used to has been ripped away. Like there's no more gravity, and I'm left to drift in outer space with no idea where I'm going.”

Not Dead, Can't Quit. Richard Machowicz.
Xiv.16. Karmanah sukritasyaahuh saattwikam nirmalam phalam;
rajasastu phalam duhkham ajnaanam tamasah phalam.
Xiv.17. Sattwaat sanjaayate jnaanam rajaso lobha eva cha;
pramaadamohau tamaso bhavato'jnaanameva cha.

Got a free coffee yesterday and it brought it to mind!

Last time I was there there was loads of quotes from the film scribbled over the boarded up doors and windows. Nice running round there, definitely off the beaten track.
Yep, amazing film.
If I went to the house, I'd have to leave a hare outside with a note pinned to the door. No prizes for guessing what the note would say!

It's the most devastating moment in a young man's life, when he quite reasonably says to himself, "I shall never play The Dane!" It is at that moment that all ambition ceases to exist.
