Are you lost?
Umore: 
ubriaco
Are you lost?
Because we don’t know when we will die,
we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.
Yet everything happen only a certain number of times.
A very small number, really.
How many more times will you remember
of certain afternoon of your childhood?
Some afternoon that so deeply part of your being
that you can’t even see your life without it.
Perhaps four or five times more.
Perhaps not even that.
How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?
Perhaps 20.
And yet it all seems limitless.
Excerpt from “The Sheltering Sky”, A movie by Bernardo Bertolucci
This piece is quoted in “Dream machine”, a song by God Machine, 1992, beginning of the album.
Also, in “Lost”, song by neurosis.
Last evening i went to the pub and had this passage from Neurosis in my mind. Then I knew a man, we spoke about music, he told me about the God Machine, which I didn’t knew since now. Downloaded this album and discovered that the first phrase was what yesterday night was in my mind and what the unknown man couldn’t knew.
Music is a channel for magic.
