Chapter 32: Understand Yourself
The old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks descended from Yangzhou in March.
The shadow of the lone sail in the distance is gone in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky.
——Li Bai's "Send Off to Meng Haoran in Guangling"
Alas, I am reluctant to leave my best friend. It is true that we have been in love since ancient times.
"Sleeping Venus"
The book introduces it as: "The most elegant and pure work in the history of art."
"Sistine Madonna": "One of the most moving works in the history of human art."
——Fu Lei
"The Sistine Madonna" "makes people indulge in it unconsciously and lose themselves."
Art seems to have a magical power.
"The Virgin in the Chair" is also very beautiful, although the arms are a bit thick.
"The Penitent Mary Magdalene" is also good.
The candlelight is so wonderful.
When I watched "The Jungle Book",
I was attracted by the fairy in clothes, so beautiful.
What a face like an angel.
But the point of view in the book is different from mine.
It is estimated that different people and different periods of time will have different aesthetics.
Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" and Monet's "Water Lilies" are very similar in approach and approach.
First, they are all flowering plants.
Second, they are all round.
Third, they all have hazy beauty.
Among Dali's paintings, I prefer "Leda and the Goose" to "The Persistence of Memory".
Although they all have a sense of mystery and fantasy.
After reading "XZ Human Geography", I learned that Tibetan also has calligraphy, which "has a long history."
I remember that Arabic has calligraphy, and ancient Egyptian seems to have calligraphy as well.
The word "wind horse" is a true image.
The wind is an invisible horse.
Looking through "The Old Man and the Sea", I suddenly realized:
This is an inspirational book:
"But people are not born for failure. A person can be destroyed, but not defeated."
The last sentence of the book:
"The old man was dreaming of a lion."
In fact, it shows that the old man has the characteristics of a lion: the strong one among animals (the king's demeanor) - the old man is brave and aims for thousands of miles.
Reminds me of that sentence:
"That night, I also dreamed of millions of soldiers."
——Guo Degang
This sentence is so good that I searched it on Baidu. He adapted "That night, I dreamed of millions of soldiers" from "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
I flipped through the book and found the petal specimens placed by the original owner. I took four photos, uploaded them to Tuchong, and named them: "Bookmark of Time."
End of episode one of the BBC documentary Wonders of the Universe:
"Life is the means by which the universe understands itself."
"The true importance of humanity lies in the ability and desire to explore this beautiful universe."
(our truesignificanceliesinourabilityandourdesiretounderstandandexplorethisbeautifuluniverse.)
This perspective is unique and worth pondering.
Watching "The Deer and the Cauldron" (Zhang Yishan's version), he also acted very hard.
I am becoming more and more interested in documentaries.
I found a documentary website and it seemed good.
It's called "Fire Stealing Documentary" ().
Reminds me of Prometheus, the fire-stealer in ancient Greek mythology.
The slogan in the upper right corner of the homepage is very attractive:
"Global Documentary Database - Preserving Human Memory."
Well, documentaries are valuable for their authenticity.
So, I couldn't help my curiosity and signed up.
Then, he recommended more than ten documentaries to me.
I read the introduction to each one, and most of them I like to read.
It's amazing, 95% of them are to my liking.
About 60% are BBC documentaries.
The only drawback is that it cannot be played on demand. Download services are provided, but they are basically charged.
Listening to music also brings me great feelings. I haven’t written much about music seriously, even though I love music so much.
From now on, I will not only write about my movie-watching feelings, reading insights, and daily experiences, but also the music I listen to every day, my feelings, and my and other people’s comments.
Basically, it revolves around the daily recommended songs of NetEase Cloud Music, 30 songs every day.
