I went to the woods
,

because I wanted to live deliberately, because I wanted to live
a meaningful life.

I wanted to live deep
I wanted to live deep,

and All at The Suck OUT marrow of Life,
to learn the essence of all life,
the life of all non-rout.

and not when I had come to die,
so as not to

discover that I had not lived
.

Such a good film. I saw it today. 2007-01-26. Highly recommended.
Finally, when Todd Anderson called out O Captain, my Captain, when the students stood on the table one by one, I was full of tears when I watched teacher John Keating's satisfied but reluctant eyes.

We do not withpoetry the Read and the Write
Because IT's Cute.
We read and write Poetry is not for its dexterity.

We read and write poetry because
we are members of the human race

because we are a human

and at The Human Race
IS Filled with Passion.
Humans are passionate

Now we all have a great need for acceptance, but you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own, even though others may think them odd or unpopular, even though the herd may go,

    Oh! captain! My captain!

    Hypocritical, hypocritical, blunt, pretentious. It is intended to attract young audiences with the theme of resisting the rigid and rigid education system, but every step of the plot design reveals a stale taste. Should freedom, rebellion, and self-seeking look like this? Are the scattered verses of "skip realism" taken out of context in the collage as romantic? Isn't the screenwriter writing such a pale and deliberate book assimilated by the rigid system? (5.0/10)

Dead Poets Society quotes

  • Neil Perry: [finds Todd sitting alone on the roof] Hey!

    Todd Anderson: Hey.

    Neil Perry: What's going on?

    Todd Anderson: Nothin'. Today's my birthday.

    Neil Perry: Is today your birthday? Happy birthday!

    Todd Anderson: Thanks.

    Neil Perry: What'd you get?

    Todd Anderson: [indicating the desk set lying beside him] My parents gave me this.

    Neil Perry: Isn't this the same desk set...

    Todd Anderson: Yeah. Yeah, they gave me the same thing as last year.

    Neil Perry: Oh.

    Todd Anderson: Oh.

    Neil Perry: Maybe they thought you needed another one.

    Todd Anderson: Maybe they weren't thinking about anything at all. The funny thing about this is, I-I didn't even like it the first time.

    Neil Perry: Todd, I think you're underestimating the value of this desk set.

    [picks it up]

    Neil Perry: I mean, who would want a football or a baseball or...

    Todd Anderson: Or a car.

    Neil Perry: Or a car, if they could have a desk set as wonderful as this one? I mean, if-if I were ever going to buy a desk set, twice, I would probably buy this one. Both times! In fact, its shape is... it's rather aerodynamic, isn't it?

    [walks to the edge of the roof]

    Neil Perry: You can feel it. This desk set wants to fly!

    [hands it to Todd]

    Neil Perry: Todd? The world's first unmanned flying desk set.

    [Todd throws it off the roof - papers fly everywhere and things crash and clatter to the ground]

    Neil Perry: Oh my! Well, I wouldn't worry. You'll get another one next year.

  • John Keating: Phone call from God. If it had been collect, that would have been daring!
