"We Can Work It Out"

Try to see it my way

Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?

While you see it your way

Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone

We can work it out

We can work it out

Think of what you're saying

You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright

Think of what I'm saying

We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night

We can work it out

We can work it out

Life is very short, and there's no time

For fussing and fighting, my friend

I have always thought that it's a crime

So I will ask you once again

Try to see it my way

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong

While you see it your way

There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long

We can work it out

We can work it out

Life is very short, and there's no time

For fussing and fighting, my friend

I have always thought that it's a crime

So I will ask you once again

Try to see it my way

Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong

While you see it your way

There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long

We can work it out

We can work it out

"저는 과거에 사랑을 앞에 두고 아끼지 못하고 잃은 후에 큰 후회를 했소. 

인생사에서 가장 고통스러운 일은 후회하는 것이오. 

하늘에서 다시 기회를 준다면 사랑한다고 말하겠소. 

만약 기한을 정해야 한다면 만년으로 하겠소."

주성치의 서유기2 (선리기연) 中

"国境の長いトンネルを抜けると雪国であった。

국경의 긴 터널을 빠져나오자 눈의 고장이었다. "

国境の長いトンネルを抜けると雪国であった。夜の底が白くなった。信号所に汽車が止まった。

국경의 긴 터널을 빠져나오자 눈의 고장이었다. 밤의 밑바닥이 하얗게 변했다. 신호소에 기차가 멈춰섰다.

向側の座席から娘が立って来て、島村の前のガラス窓を落とした。雪の冷気が流れこんだ。娘は窓いっぱいに乗り出して、遠く叫ぶやうに、
「駅長さあん、駅長さあん。」
明りをさげてゆっくり雪を踏んで来た男は、襟巻で鼻の上まで包み、耳に帽子の毛皮を垂れていた。
もうそんな寒さかと島村は外を眺めると、鉄道の官舎らしいバラックが山裾に寒々と散らばっているだけで、雪の色はそこまで行かぬうちに闇に呑まれていた。

반대쪽 좌석에서 여자아이가 일어나 와서 시마무라의 앞 유리창을 내렸다. 눈의 냉기가 흘러들었다. 여자아이는 창문 밖으로 잔뜩 몸을 내밀고 멀리로 외치듯 “역장님, 역장님”
등불을 들고 천천히 눈을 밟으며 온 남자는 목도리로 코의 위까지 감싸고 귀 위로 모자의 털가죽을 늘어뜨리고 있었다.
벌써 그런 추위인가 하고 시마무라가 밖을 내다보자, 철도의 관사 같은 가건물이 산기슭에 황량하게 흩어져 있을 뿐, 눈빛은 거기까지 가지 않은 사이에 어둠에 삼켜져 있었다.

Joel: I can't see anything that I don't like about you.

Clementine: But you will! But you will. You know, you will think of things. And I'll get bored with you and feel trapped because that's what happens with me.

Joel: Okay.

Clementine: [pauses] Okay.

Joel: Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating.

Clementine: This is it, Joel. It's going to be gone soon.

Joel: I know.

Clementine: What do we do?

Joel: Enjoy it.

Joel: [in the house on the beach] I have to go. I have to catch my ride.

Clementine: So go!

Joel: I did. I thought maybe you were a nut... but you were exciting.

Clementine: I wish you had stayed.

Joel: I wish I had stayed too. NOW I wish I had stayed. I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I had... I wish I had stayed. I do.

Clementine: Well I came back downstairs and you were gone!

Joel: I walked out, I walked out the door!

Clementine: Why?

Joel: I don't know. I felt like a scared little kid, I was like... it was above my head, I don't know.

Clementine: You were scared?

Joel: Yeah. I thought you knew that about me. I ran back to the bonfire, trying to outrun my humiliation, I think.

Clementine: Was it something I said?

Joel: Yeah... you said "so go." With such disdain, you know?

Clementine: Oh, I'm sorry.

Joel: It's okay.

[Walking Out]

Clementine: Joely? What if you stayed this time?

Joel: I walked out the door. There's no memory left.

Clementine: Come back and make up a good-bye at least. Let's pretend we had one.

[Joel comes back. Clementine walks down the stairs towards him]

Clementine: Bye Joel.

Joel: I love you.

Clementine: Meet me... in Montauk...

Joel: Hi.

Clementine: Hi. Didn't figure you'd show your face around me again. I guess I thought you were... humiliated. You did run away, after all.

Joel: I just needed to see you.

Clementine: Yeah?

Joel: I'd like to, um... take you out, or something.

Clementine: You're married.

Joel: Not yet, not married. No, I'm not married.

Clementine: Look man, I'm telling you right off the bat, I'm high-maintainance, so... I'm not gonna tip-toe around your marriage, or whatever it is you've got goin' there. If you wanna be with me, you're with me.

Joel: Okay.

Clementine: Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours.

Joel: I remember that speech really well.

Clementine: I had you pegged, didn't I?

Joel: You had the whole human race pegged.

Clementine: Hmm. Probably.

Joel: I still thought you were gonna save my life... even after that.

Clementine: Ohhh... I know.

Joel: It would be different, if we could just give it another go-round.

Clementine: Remember me. Try your best; maybe we can.

학교에서 제가 배운 것은 주도력과 오너십이에요. 인생이든, 가치관이든, 일이든, 무엇이든 나의 오너십을 가져아 한다는 점을 학교에서 굉장히 많이 배웠어요. (중략)

주도력은 '다른 사람은 필요 없고 다 내가 할 거야'가 아니라, 어떤 문제에 직면했을때 그 문제를 정면으로 부딪혀 나가는 것이에요. 그 문제가 아이를 키우는 일이든, 일에 관한 것이든 무엇이 되었든 간에요. 어떤 선택지가 주어졌을 때 과감하게 변화를 모색하는 것, 리스크 테이킹 (risk taking)을 하는 것이 중요한 것 같아요. 인생은 선택의 연속이니까요. 어떤 일이든 주저하지 말고 자신감을 가지고 대하세요. 이런 마음가짐을 가지면 어디에서든지 성공할 수 있을 것 같아요.

요즘은 백세시대고 다양성의 사회잖아요. 그러니까 기성세대에서 정한 틀에 얽매여서 의미를 부여하지 않았으면 좋겠어요. 인생은 길잖아요. 다른 사람의 시선을 의식하거나 다른 사람과 비교하며 좌절하거나 우쭐하거나 하지 않았으면 좋겠어요. 나에게 예비된 길이 분명히 있다는 것을 믿고, 다른 사람과 내가 같지 않다고 확신하면서 긴 호흡으로 살아갔으면 해요.

Ownership, risk-taking, 내가 선택하는 인생과 긴 호흡

From Booklist
Novak’s high-concept, hilarious, and disarmingly commiserative fiction debut stems from his stand-up performances and his Emmy Award–winning work on the comedy series, The Office, as writer, actor, director, and executive producer. Accordingly, his more concise stories come across as brainy comedy bits, while his sustained tales covertly encompass deep emotional and psychological dimensions. An adept zeitgeist miner, Novak excels at topsy-turvy improvisations on a dizzying array of subjects, from Aesop’s fables to tabloid Elvis to our oracular enthrallment to the stock market. A master of cringe, Novak imagines a blind date with a warlord, a Comedy Central TV roast of Nelson Mandela, and a mortifying misunderstanding between mega-best-selling novelist John Grisham and his new editor. Writing with zing and humor in the spirit of Woody Allen and Steve Martin, Novak also ventures into the realm of George Saunders and David Foster Wallace. A boy wins a breakfast-cereal contest and discovers a shocking family secret. A sex robot falls in love. A man reveals the heartbreak behind the universally dreaded math problem about the two trains leaving the stations at different times. Baseline clever and fresh, at best spectacularly perceptive, and always commanding, Novak’s ingeniously ambushing stories of longing, fear, pretension, and confusion reveal the quintessential absurdities and transcendent beauty of our catch-as-catch-can lives. HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: Novak’s television fame is an instant lure, one that will be pitched far and wide as Novak appears on major talk shows and travels to 20 cities in concert with an immense print and online ad campaign. --Donna Seaman

a recent upsurge of interest in his movies

You are a really nice person to talk with. These pics remind us how we have been for the time I spend with you. I consider you a lot.

• Hello, I am a divorced mother of three beautiful children. I have been battling my weight for a while now... It feels as if I woke up one morning a full-fledged member of the 200+ club... I have finally decided to put my foot down and do something about it. I am ready to get my body back.. I know that I am in here somewhere trying to get out. This year I will conquer the battle of the bulge. I am on a steadfast journey to a healthier and fitter me!

• Totally legitimate reason to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Frances: It's that thing when you're with someone, and you love them and they know it, and they love you and you know it... but it's a party... and you're both talking to other people, and you're laughing and shining... and you look across the room and catch each other's eyes... but - but not because you're possessive, or it's precisely sexual... but because... that is your person in this life. And it's funny and sad, but only because this life will end, and it's this secret world that exists right there in public, unnoticed, that no one else knows about. It's sort of like how they say that other dimensions exist all around us, but we don't have the ability to perceive them. That's - That's what I want out of a relationship. Or just life, I guess.

엠마 왓슨의 감동적인 유엔 연설 화제
권복기 허핑턴포스트코리아 2014년 09월 23일 07시 35분 KST
엠마 왓슨의 감동적인 유엔 연설이 화제다.

영화 해리포터 시리즈에 출연한 세계적인 여배우 엠마 왓슨은 21일(현지 시간) 뉴욕의 유엔본부에서 양성평등을 위한 캠페인 히포쉬(HeForShe)의 시작을 알리는 연설을 했다.

HeForShe 캠페인은 양성평등을 위한 활동에 10만 명의 남성과 소년을 참여시키는 것을 목표로 하고 있다.

다음은 허핑턴포스트US에서 보도한 엠마 왓슨 연설문 요지다.



유엔여성친선대사인 엠마 왓슨과 반기문 유엔 사무총장
저는 6개월 전에 여성친선대사로 지명됐습니다. 그 뒤 제가 페미니즘에 대해 발언하면 할수록 여성의 권리 확보를 위한 싸움이 늘 남성을 증오하는 것과 같은 의미가 된다는 사실을 깨달았습니다. 제가 분명히 알게 된 한가지 사실은 이 같은 현실이 바뀌어야 한다는 것입니다.
페미니즘의 정의는 남성과 여성이 동등한 권리와 기회를 가져야 한다는 것이라고 알고 있습니다. 이는 양성의 정치적, 경제적, 사회적 평등을 뜻합니다.

저는 남성들에게 이런 일에 함께 참여하기를 공식적으로 초청합니다. 양성평등 문제는 여러분의 문제이기도 하기 때문입니다.

우리는 종종 남성이 성고정관념에 갇혀 있다고 말합니다. 남성들이 그런 고정 관념에서 자유로워지면 자연스럽게 여성을 위한 변화는 일어날 것입니다.

…

저는 남성들이 이 같은 역할을 맡아주기를 바랍니다. 그리하면 여러분의 딸과 오누이와 어머니들이 편견에서 벗어나게 될 것입니다.

이는 그녀들의 아들들 또한 나약한 인간이라는 것을 인정하고, 자신들이 버렸던 자신들의 부분을 되찾아 보다 진실하고 완벽한 자신으로 거듭날 수 있게 해줄 것입니다.

다음은 엠마 왓슨의 연설문 전문이다.

Today, we are launching a campaign called HeForShe. I am reaching out to you before we need your help. We want to end gender inequality and to do this, we need everyone involved. This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN. We want to try to galvanise as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change and we don’t just want to talk about it. We want to try and make sure that it’s tangible.
I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for U.N. Women six months ago and the more I’ve spoken about feminism, the more I have realized that fighting for women’s rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating. If there is one thing I know for certain, it is that this has to stop.

For the record, feminism, by definition, is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes. I started questioning gender-based assumptions a long time ago.

When I was 8, I was confused about being called ‘bossy’ because I wanted to direct the plays that we would put on for our parents. But the boys were not. When at 14, I started to be sexualized by certain elements of the media, when at 15, my girlfriends started dropping out of their beloved sports teams, because they didn’t want to appear ‘muscle-y,’ when at 18, my male friends were unable to express their feelings, I decided that I was a feminist. And this seems uncomplicated to me. But my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.

Women are choosing not to identify as feminists. Apparently, I am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong, ‘too aggressive,’ isolating and anti-men, unattractive, even. Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one?

I am from Britain and I think it is right that I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body, I think [applause break] ... I think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and the decisions that affect my life. I think it is right that socially, I am afforded the same respect as men.

But sadly, I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights. No country in the world can yet say that they have achieved gender equality. These rights, I consider to be human rights but I am one of the lucky ones, my life is a sheer privilege because my parents didn’t love me less because I was born a daughter. My school did not limit me because I was a girl. My mentors didn’t assume that I would go less far because I might give birth to a child one day. These influencers are the gender equality ambassadors that made me who I am today.

They may not know it, but they are the inadvertent feminists who are changing the world today. We need more of those and if you still hate the word, it is not the word that is important. It’s the idea and the ambition behind it. Because not all women have received the same rights that I have. In fact, statistically, very few have been.

In 1997, Hillary Clinton made a famous speech in Beijing about women’s rights. Sadly, many of the things that she wanted to change are still true today. But what stood out for me the most was that less than 30 per cent of the audience were male. How can we affect change in the world when only half of it is invited or feel welcome to participate in the conversation?

Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation.” [Applause break] “Gender equality is your issue too. Because to date, I’ve seen my father’s role as a parent being valued less by society despite my needing his presence, as a child, as much as my mother’s. I’ve seen young men suffering from mental illness, unable to ask for help, for fear it would make them less of a man. In fact, in the U.K., suicide is the biggest killer of men, between 20 to 49, eclipsing road accidents, cancer and coronary heart disease. I’ve seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success. Men don’t have the benefits of equality, either.

We don’t want to talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes but I can see that they are. When they are free, things will change for women as a natural consequence. If men don’t have to be aggressive, women won’t be compelled to be submissive. If men don’t need to control, women won’t have to be controlled.

It is time that we all see gender as a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals. We should stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by who we are. We can all be freer and this is what HeForShe is about. It’s about freedom. I want men to take up this mantle so their daughters, sisters and mothers can be free from prejudice but also so their sons have permission to be vulnerable and human, too and in doing so, be a more true and complete version of themselves.

You might think, ‘Who is this Harry Potter girl? What is she doing at the U. N.?’ And it’s a really good question — I’ve been asking myself the same thing. All I know is that I care about this problem and I want to make it better. And having seen what I’ve seen and given the chance, I feel my responsibility to say something. Statesman Edmund Burke said all that is needed for the forces of evil to triumph is for good men and women to do nothing.

In my nervousness for this speech and my moments of doubt, I’ve told myself firmly, ‘If not me, who? If not now, when?’ If you have similar doubts when opportunities are presented to you, I hope that those words will be helpful because the reality is, if we do nothing, it will take 75 years or for me, to be nearly 100, before women can expect to be paid the same as men for the same work — 15.5 million girls will be married in the next 16 years as children and at current rates, it won’t be until 2086 before all rural African girls can have a secondary education.

If you believe in equality, you might be one of those inadvertent feminists that I spoke of earlier and for this, I applaud you. We are struggling for a uniting word but the good news is that we have a uniting movement. It is called HeForShe. I am inviting you to step forward to be seen and to ask yourself, ‘If not me, who? If not now, when?’ Thank you very, very much.
