While I work and feel some people around me, I can’t help thinking to the movie Shining from Stanley Kubrick I quote: ” All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” only the balance is attractive. |

I am not quite sure where this poem is going. In the book and film, of course, Jack develops into a manic murderer. Does working with some people make you feel murderous towards them? "Or does only the balance is attractive" have a different meaning? Sorry, I guess my brain cells are dying quicker than I thought. Do not go gentle into that good night. |

Hi David it is all my fault if the poem doesn't work, I should consider revisiting it if I am brave enough....I can reassure you I don't admire Jack Nicholson murderer exept as an actor....I simply want to notice that some people at work become very efficient but look like lost in relationship and so the quote.....The movie simply is very enjoyable and distracted me so easily that I was grateful at this masterpiece...I have been very moved by the talent of the director Stanley Kubrick and wanted to give a kind of hommage.... Fictional works can help sometimes to forget the morosity and so are helpful... thank you for your interesting comment and sorry for my kind of dull answer... regards yann |
