“Human beings are like detectives. They love a mystery. They love going where the mystery pulls them. What we don't like is a mystery that's solved completely. It's a letdown. It always seems less than what we imagined when the mystery was present. The last scene in `Blow Up' is so perfect because you leave the theater still dreaming. Or the end of `Chinatown,' where the guy says `Forget it, Jake, it's Chinatown.' It explains so much but it only gives you a dream of a bigger mystery. Like life. For me, I want to solve certain things but leave some room to dream.” WantGivingHumansStillsEndsDreamSeemsLastsGuyCertainHuman BeingsPerfectForgetRoomsMysterySceneBiggerTheaterBlowSolveForget ItDetectivesJakeLetdownsChinatown Author:David

“Millions of Americans would still despair in the eight long years of the Depression that lay ahead and many of their individual dreams would be dashed on the rocks of economic hardship. But collectively, the country was in a new place, with a new confidence that the federal government would actively try to solve problems rather than fiddle or cater to the rich. Hope was no longer for Pollyannas; the cynics about the American system were in retreat.” TryingYearsLongStillsCountryProblemDreamGovernmentWould BeIndividualMillionsRichEconomicRocksDespairLaysEightSolveHardshipFederal GovernmentRetreatNew PlacesFiddlePollyanna Book:The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope Source: The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope
“Sometimes I forget what I put in. I want to capture things in that way, where you're looking into your memory, a dream or hallucination. The characters become a mixture of archetypes, [and] that's what I like. You're trying to figure it out and your brain wants to categorize things, but it can't because of this motion. You want to solve the problem, but it never gets solved. It's like when you read a really good book and the story never leaves you.” WayWantTryingBookSometimesCharacterStoriesProblemDreamMemoriesForgetBrainFiguresLike YouSolveCaptureMixturesGood BookOur MemoriesHallucinationsArchetypeI Like You Author:Ali Banisadr
