Make Belief

Death
Humans need fantasy to *be* human. To be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape.

Susan
With tooth fairies? Santa Claus?

Death
Yes. As practice, you have to start out learning to believe the little lies.

Susan

So we can believe the big ones?

Death

Yes. Justice, mercy, duty. That sort of thing.

Susan

They're not the same at all.

Death

You think so? Then take the universe and grind it down to the finest powder, and sieve it through the finest sieve, and then show me one atom of justice, one molecule of mercy. And yet, you try to act as if there is some ideal order in the world. As if there is some, some rightness in the universe, by which it may be judged.

Susan

But people have got to believe that, or what's the point?

Death

You need to believe in things that aren't true. How else can they become?




Nu verkar youtube fakka sig så att man inte kan kopiera inbäddad källkod och klipp och skit....
Om någon känner till hur man löser det så får ni gärna lämna tips i kommentatorsfältet.

Här är länken till klippet jag tänkte slänga upp i alla fall.
Helt otippad musik för mig att tycka om men... Texten skildrar en historisk händelse.
