The Lie

Go, Soul, the body's guest,
Upon a thankless errand;
Fear not to touch the best;
The truth shall be thy warrant:
Go, since I needs must die,
And give the world the lie.

Say to the court, it glows
And shines like rotten wood;
Say to the church, it shows
What's good, and doth no good:
If church and court reply,
Then give them both the lie.

Tell potentates, they live
Acting by others' action;
Not loved unless they give,
Not strong but by a faction.
If potentates reply,
Give potentates the lie.

Tell men of high condition,
That manage the estate,
Their purpose is ambition,
Their practice only hate:
And if they once reply,
Then give them all the lie.

Tell them that brave it most,
They beg for more by spending,
Who, in their greatest cost,
Seek nothing but commending.
And if they make reply,
Then give them all the lie.

Tell zeal it wants devotion;
Tell love it is but lust;
Tell time it is but motion;
Tell flesh it is but dust:
And wish them not reply,
For thou must give the lie.

Tell age it daily wasteth;
Tell honour how it alters;
Tell beauty how she blasteth;
Tell favour how it falters:
And as they shall reply,
Give every one the lie.

Tell wit how much it wrangles
In tickle points of niceness;
Tell wisdom she entangles
Herself in overwiseness:
And when they do reply,
Straight give them both the lie.

Tell physic of her boldness;
Tell skill it is pretension;
Tell charity of coldness;
Tell law it is contention:
And as they do reply,
So give them still the lie.

So when thou hast, as I
Commanded thee, done blabbing—
Although to give the lie
Deserves no less than stabbing—
Stab at thee he that will,
No stab the soul can kill.

Television Sucks

Television Sucks

Marea problema e ca televiziunea nu e chiar asa de rea.
Desigur 95% este,insa exista si o gramada de canale creative,educationale,interesante,amuzante.Si daca pe aceste canale nu gasiti nimic,exista sute de filme pe care le puteti inchiria sau descarca.
Problema e ca televiziunea iti da iluzia de conectare cu alti oameni din toata lumea.Nu conteaza cat de patetica e viata ta,poti sa deschizi televizoru si sa lasi povestile si emotiile sa iti spele creierul.
Filmele te lasa sa cunosti caracterele in cele mai intime detalii,iti da senzatia ca imparti cu ei cele mai excitante errr..incitante momente din viata lor,cand se indragostesc,vindeca boli,inving extracterestrii etc.
Dar desigur totul e fals,nu-i cunosti pe acei oameni,rolurile pe care ei le joaca se limiteaza la verbul "a juca".
Toti baietii o iubesc pe Jessica Alba,pentru rolurile ei in filme,intruchipand fata perfecta din toate punctele de vedere,dar oare,asa e si in realitate?Mai mult ca sigur NU.Intre timp propria ta viata e de...rahat.Uiti de asta pentru cateva ore,cat dureaza un film ca The boondock saints,desi simti ca ai experimentat o data cu caracterele un mozaic de sentimente,realitatea e ca ti-ai petrecut dupa amiaza holbandu-te la o cutie.

Deci e un lucru bun ca majoritatea programelor sunt proaste.Gandeste-te la filmul tau preferat,actorii tai preferati,si imagineaza-ti cum ar fii fost daca toate filmele si toti actorii ar fii la fel.Ce ar fii daca fiecare emisiune sau film,zi si noapte ar fii senzationale,cum ar fii sa schimbi canalele si la orice ora,pe orice canal sa fie un film la fel de bun ca filmul tau preferat?
Ah,nu am fii in stare sa ne mai dezlipim de televizor,am renunta la viata noastra,si ne-am petrece-o pe toata holbandu-ne la o cutie idioata,asa ca fiti fericit ca ...Television Sucks

Dar asta nu e nimic in comparatie cu internetul
