Favorite Music:

Johannes Brahms

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

-----------------------------

I like the tone colour of acoustic guitars, violas, and recorders. I prefer sophistication in simplicity, as in Mozart's music, but I also enjoy Brahms's deepness. With a few exceptions, I don't like electronic music - feeling that it's far less green and healthy.

Favorite Quotations:

"Mum, where is us going to have gone to go?" (by gullit, aged 10)

"siu gu ah, sui do hey foon lei, Saamsam mew mew giu" (sing Doraemon to bb)

"Wa law or law e sai stream!" (sing Lipovitan)

"How, Where, When? Oh! How, Where, When will we touch again?" (Cleo Laine sings Canon in D)

"Bach? Oh...!" (to pretend that you deeply know music when being asked about the composer)

「霧月夜抱泣落紅，險些破碎了燈釵夢。喚魂句，頻頻喚句卿須記取再重逢......」(Yam Kim Fai, the Legend of Purple Hairpin)

"May the force be with you." (Blessings between Jedi Knights)

"Is there anything more pretty than a ride late at night with the stars overhead and, from time to time, a falling star?" (by Ken Kifer)

"To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event as well as of a precise organization of forms which give that event its proper expression" (by Henri Cartier-Bresson)

"In my life I did nothing bad. Why does it have to be like this?" (the last words of Leslie)

"I am dying in this town!"

and

"If I were thinking clearly Leonard, I would tell you that I wrestle alone in the dark, in the deep dark and only I can know, only I can understand my own condition. You live with the threat; you tell me, you live with the threat of my extinction. Leonard, I live with it too. This is my right. It is the right of every human being. I choose not to suffocate in the anesthetic of the suburb but the violent jolt of the capital. That is my choice. The meanest patient, yes, even the lowest is allowed some say in the matter of her own prescription. That by which she defines her humanity. I wish, for your sake, Leonard that I could be happy in this quietness but if it is a choice between Richmond and death, I choose death." (by "Virginia Woolf", the Hours)
