Soliloquy "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." Quand la solitude est trop forte et le désespoir n'est pas si tranquille, Recuerdo esto: "Vedana-nirodha tanha-nirodho; Tanha-nirodha dukkha-nirodho." Quando dormo senza sogni smetterò di desiderare il paradiso. Pero... Hay uno sueño que importa, sólo uno sueño y uno verdad. Sólo uno - un homme seul. Sólo uno - un homme solitaire. Ego sum homo solitarius. Factus sum homo domitus. Sed sum quod sum et quia sum, volo. Cupio. Desidero. Más tequila por favor. Sauvez-moi, si vous pouvez. Soliloquy "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." When the loneliness is too strong and the desperation is not so quiet, I remember this: "When sensations cease, craving ceases; When craving ceases, suffering ceases." When I sleep without dreams I'll no longer pine for Eden. But... There is one dream that matters, only one dream and one truth. Only one - a man alone. Only one - a solitary man. I am the solitary man. I have become the tamed man. But I am what I am and because I am, I want. I desire. I desire. More tequila, please. Save me, if you can. Mark Sebring (2012)
