A very literary film. And it's the kind of movie that has a strong American literary character. But I just can't stand kingsley's big bald head superimposed on the big beauty's head. ....

I have also read a lot about the long-term love between male writers or scholars and Qimei women, and it is true that passion and spiritual consonance fit together, but the fault lies in the right time and place. Reality. If you meet in a crowd of people but not at the best age and time, then wait for each other to have a redemptive mood, and teach that all memories will be settled. If time can keep you, I will sing an elegy when the curtain is...

David Kepesh: [interview on the Charlie Rose show] We're not all descended from the Puritans.
Charlie Rose: No?
David Kepesh: There was another colony 30 miles from Plymouth, it's not on the maps today. Marymount it was called.
Charlie Rose: Yeah, alright, you mention in your book...
David Kepesh: The colony where anything goes, went.
Charlie Rose: There was booze...
David Kepesh: here was booze. There was fornication. There was music. There was... they even ah, ah, ah, you name it, you name it. They even danced around the maypole once a month, wearing masks, worshiping god knows what, Whites and Indians together, all going for broke...
Charlie Rose: Who was responsible for all of this?
David Kepesh: A character by the name of Thomas Morton.
Charlie Rose: Aah, the "Hugh Hefner" of the Puritans.
David Kepesh: You could say that. I'm going to read you a quote of what the Puritans thought of Morton's followers: 'Debauched bacchanalians and atheists, falling into great licentiousness, and leading degenerate lives'. When I heard that, I packed my bags, I left Oxford, and I came straight to America, America the licentious.
Charlie Rose: So what happened to all of those people?
David Kepesh: Well, the Puritans shot them down. They sent in Miles Standish leading the militia. He chopped down the maypole, cut down those colored ribbons, banners, everything; party was over
Charlie Rose: And we became a nation of straight-laced Puritans.
David Kepesh: Well...
Charlie Rose: Isn't that your point though? The Puritans won, they stamped out all things sexual... how would you say it?
David Kepesh: Sexual happiness.
Charlie Rose: Exactly. Until the 1960s.
David Kepesh: Until the 1960s when it all exploded again all over the place.
Charlie Rose: Right, everyone was dancing around the maypole, then, make love not war.
David Kepesh: If you remember, only a decade earlier, if you wanted to have sex, if you wanted to make love in the 1950s, you had to beg for it, you had to cop a feel.
Charlie Rose: Or... get married.
David Kepesh: As I did in the 1960s.
Charlie Rose: Any regrets?
David Kepesh: Plenty. Um, but that's our secret. Don't tell anybody.
[laughter]
David Kepesh: That's just between you and me.
