You didn’t clean up after your dog

آبان 1, 1397

Chuck Rhoades: Excuse me, sir. Man: What? Chuck Rhoades: You didn’t clean up after your dog. Man: Yeah, I forgot the bag today. Chuck Rhoades: Oh, I don’t think so because, you know, it’s not just the statutory law, it’s the law of civility, man. And I’ve seen you before. You come out of that building, your dog craps, and you just leave it where it falls. Man: Why don’t you mind your business? Chuck Rhoades: This is my business. Man: Oh, you’re that guy. Chuck Rhoades: I am that guy. Man: All right, well, do you have an extra bag? Chuck Rhoades: No, no. See, I used mine. Man: Well, I’ll get it next time. Chuck Rhoades: No, I think you need to get it this time. Man: Why don’t you let it slide? Chuck Rhoades: “Let it slide.” That sounds simple, easy. Sure, let it slide. That’s just some dog shit. But those are three devious little words. You know, if if I let your dog shit slide, then I have to be okay with this whole plaza filling up with it, which it would... ادامه


How can I hold that all men are created equal?

مهر 16, 1397

Thaddeus Stevens: How can I hold that all men are created equal, when here before me stands, stinking, the moral carcass of the gentleman from Ohio, proof that some men are inferior. Endowed by their Maker with dim wits, impermeable to reason, with cold, pallid slime in their veins instead of hot red blood! You are more reptile than man, George! So low and flat, that the foot of man is incapable of crushing you! George Pendleton: How dare you? Thaddeus Stevens: Yet even you, Pendleton, who should have been gibbeted for treason long before today, even worthless unworthy you ought to be treated equally before the law! And so again, sir, and again and again and again I say: I do not hold with equality in all things. Only with equality before the law. -Lincoln (2012) ادامه

25th hour

فروردین 21, 1397

Monty Brogan: Yeah, fuck you, too. Fuck me? Fuck you, Fuck you and this whole city and everyone in it. Fuck the panhandlers, grubbing for money, and smiling at me behind my back. Fuck the squeegee men dirtying up the clean windshield of my car – get a fucking job! Fuck the Sikhs and the Pakistanis bombing down the avenues in decrepit cabs, curry steaming out their pores stinking up my day. Terrorists in fucking training. SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Fuck the Chelsea boys with their waxed chests and pumped-up biceps. Going down on each other in my parks and on my piers, jingling their dicks on my Channel 35. Fuck the Korean grocers with their pyramids of overpriced fruit and their tulips and roses wrapped in plastic. Ten years in the country, still no speaky English? Fuck the Russians in Brighton Beach. Mobster thugs sitting in cafés, sipping tea in little glasses, sugar cubes between their teeth. Wheelin’ and dealin’ and schemin’. Go back where you fucking came from! Fuck the... ادامه


Wasteness

I despise the guy. Regardless of the fact that I just met him and don’t know much about him, think he’s just a waste of space. ادامه


The old man

اسفند 9, 1396

I’m gonna miss the old man when he’s gone. I remember how he used to kiss me when I was a kid. I would get angry and scream at him because of his sharp mustache. “I don’t feel young and alive anymore”, he told me the other day. “Time passes in a snap of a finger, you wake up one day, you look at the mirror and see that you’ve aged 50 years without even noticing.” Sure as shit I’m gonna miss the old man. ادامه

I miss her again

دی 14, 1396

Before this very moment, I wouldn’t for a second, think that I would miss her again. But now I terribly do. What If she was here, she would pick up a book, sit right in front of me, and start reading. Wouldn’t that make life worth living? ادامه

All the bullshit led up to this final moment

All the bullshit, pain and practice led up to this final moment. My heart is beating so fast when the officer is grading my test, I’m about to have a heart attack. Can’t believe I want it so much. Finally I got it over with. Now you’re looking at a guy with driver’s licence. ادامه

Finally Forgiven

آذر 7, 1396

“Is she coming at all? What am I going to say to her? I don’t want her to think less of me”, I told myself while I was waiting. She stopped by our mutual friend’s bookstore not an hour ago. Before she left, she told me she might come back to see me. I hadn’t seen or talked to her for a couple of months. When she came back, I was confused and nervous about her being here with me at the same time. Didn’t know what to do, didn’t know what to say. Didn’t want to make her uncomfortable, and looking back at my record, handling these situations isn’t exactly my area of expertise. She, on the other hand, is able to communicate to people just fine. So when she finally came to me and said that I’m forgiven, I was so relieved. During this couple of months, I asked for her forgiveness on a number of occasions, and got turned down every time. You see, I made an unforgivable mistake and I think she’s got every right to be angry. I abused her trust. But I have learned from... ادامه


Cradle of leadership

آبان 29, 1396

Col. Slade: As I came in here, I heard those words, “cradle of leadership”. Well, when the bow breaks, the cradle will fall. And it has fallen here, it has fallen! Makers of men, creators of leaders- be careful what kind of leaders you’re producing here. I don’t know if Charlie’s silence here today is right or wrong; I’m not a judge or jury. But I can tell you this: he won’t sell anybody out to buy his future! And that, my friends, is called integrity. That’s called courage. Now that’s the stuff leaders should be made of. Now I have come to the crossroads in my life. I always knew what the right path was; without exception, I knew. But I never took it. You know why? It was too…damn…hard. Now here’s Charlie, he’s come to the crossroads. He has chosen a path. It’s the right path. It’s a path made of principle, that leads to character. Let him continue on his journey. You hold this boy’s future in your hands, committee! It’s a valuable future. Believe... ادامه


In his wildest dreams

In his wildest dreams, Larry would never have imagined he’d once again be in this position, where precious minutes count. Tonight he could save a life. He knew Ronnie had done some bad things in the past, but so had Larry. You couldn’t change the past. But the future could be a different story. And it had to start somewhere. –Little Children ادامه
