Moment 204: Quite Beautiful

[the video shows a television displaying a bright video game map, then drifts to the hardwood floor:] You: “You’re seeing tracers on everything. And you are about to tell the girl in the room next door . . . that you think part of the problem with the two of you is you have these like artistic sensibilities, so the question becomes, Are you living for the sake of living, or are you living for the sake of having a story to tell? . . . It might not be the right word; it’s the right sentiment. Are you actually doing this—are you actually doing this just to be doing because this is what normal people experience and do, or more accurately are you only doing this so you have a story to tell later? That’s the screwed up thing. That’s not how normal people work. Normal people don’t think that way. That—that’s the truth. And I don’t think it’s bad. Actually, I think it’s quite beautiful. I think—I think it’s quite beautiful. I think it’s perfectly normal, and I think every . . . every generation, every age?—every age . . . needs that, needs people who remember the stories.”
