Domenico's speech

النحت في الزمن - اندريه تاركوفسكي

"انني أفهم هذه البنيّة المسكينة. فوسط هذا الضجر الفظيع، عندما تهوّم بدلاً من الناس بقع ما رمادية، ولا يسمع غير العبارات المبتذلة، ولا يعرف الناس شيئاً سوى أن يأكلوا، ويشربوا، ويناموا، يأتي هو أحياناً، لا يشبه الآخرين في شئ، جميلاً، شقياً، جذّاباً، فكأنما أشرق البدر الساطع وسط الظلام .. من هنا تبدأ الرغبة في الإنجذاب إلى شخصٍ كهذا، ونسيان كل شئ"
أنطون تشيخوف، مسرحية الخال فانيا

 
"What ancestor speaks in me? I can't live simultaneously in my head and in my body. That's why I can't be just one person. I can feel within myself countless things at once.

There are no great masters left. That's the real evil of our time. The heart's path is covered in shadow. We must listen to the voices that seem useless in brains full of long sewage pipes of school wall, tarmac and welfare papers. The buzzing of insects must enter. We must fill the eyes and ears of all of us with things that are the beginning of a great dream. Someone must shout that we'll build the pyramids. It doesn't matter if we don't. We must fuel that wish and stretch the corners of the soul like an endless sheet.

If you want the world to go forward, we must hold hands. We must mix the so-called healthy with the so-called sick. You healthy ones! What does your health mean? The eyes of all mankind are looking at the pit into which we are plunging. Freedom is useless if you don't have the courage to look us in the eye, to eat, drink and sleep with us! It's the so-called healthy who have brought the world to the verge of ruin. Man, listen! In you water, fire and then ashes, and the bones in the ashes. The bones and the ashes!

Where am I when I'm not in reality or in my imagination? Here's my new pact: it must be sunny at night and snowy in August. Great things end. Small things endure. Society must become united again instead of so disjointed. Just look at nature and you'll see that life is simple. We must go back to where we were, to the point where we took the wrong turn. We must go back to the main foundations of life without dirtying the water. What kind of world is this if a madman tells you you must be ashamed of yourselves!

O Mother! The air is that light thing that moves around your head and becomes clearer when you laugh."
 




Zbigniew Preisner – nostalgia
 HERE

Generally people’s memories arc precious to them. It is no accident that they are coloured by poetry. The most beautiful memories are those of childhood. Of course memory has to be worked upon before it can become the basis of an artistic reconstruction of the past; and here it is important not to lose the particular emotional atmosphere without which a memory evoked in every detail merely gives rise to a bitter feeling of disappointment. There’s an enormous difference, after all, between the way you remember the house in which you were born and which you haven’t seen for years, and the actual sight of the house after a prolonged absence. Usually the poetry of the memory is destroyed by confrontation with its origin.


Tell me the truth - for the work of this great man
