It said everything and said nothing

"One Hundred Years Tavern" and "One Hundred Years of Solitude" are still similar in purpose. It's just the American way of doing it. I want to cry in several places and heal in some places. I feel that I can watch it again, just like watching an old friend chat with him and talk about life. Life has abused you thousands of times, and you treat life like your first love. Because man coined the word hope. In the end, the little woman who applied for the bartender was like an angel. She said that she had been in love for two years and spent five years crossing, but now she is ordinary, true, happy, gentle, and brings strength and comfort. This is a miraculous thing, she was just supposed to tell the old piano man something about his attitude towards life: soothe the stomachache, and take care of the person who hurts us if he is a part of me. If human beings could be so conscious, temperate and loving, they would not fall apart! The ideal life is like this, the non-ideal life is the end of the play, crazy, dead, family, alienation, loneliness, irreparable loss... It seems to say everything, but it seems to say nothing, it seems to give the answer, and it seems that there is no answer . Just like God may really be in the world and in everyone's heart, but stupidity and disorder are always on the way! This drama is not at all sad, it is so warm, silent and determined. It's simply living to the death. Great! Very dramatic! The choreography is great! The intent is enough!

Horace and Pete quotes

  • Leon: It's sad that it's so hard to show your feelings when you really want to.

  • Horace: You alright? What's up?

    Zach: I was charged $4.50 fro a Budweiser and that guy was charged $3. Just not sure why the discrepancy?

    Horace: He's been coming here a long time.

    Zach: So is that a privilege for just that one guy?

    Horace: Some people pay $4.50 and some people pay $3.

    Zach: Ok. How do you decide that? Is there like a list?

    Horace: If he looks like him he pays $3 and if he looks like you he pays $4.50.

    Zach: So just out and out discrimination? Are you aware how unfair and totally not okay that is?

    Horace: Here's the thing. You're getting more for your money than he is.

    Zach: How so?

    Horace: Because, well see you come in here and you make fun of the place because it's an old Brooklyn dive bar. So you and your friends get to enjoy that part of it and also you get to have a beer. But he just gets the beer. See, you're here ironically. But he's really here because he just sleeps on the corner.

    Zach: So it's like a douche tax?

    Horace: Yeah, kinda.

    Zach: Acceptable.

    Horace: Ok
