Socrates: I call myself a Peaceful Warrior... because the battles we fight are on the inside.

Socrates: A warrior is not about perfection or victory or invulnerability. He's about absolute vulnerability.

片名看似矛盾oxymoron(戰士應該給人勇猛激動求勝的印象),但這兩個字放在一起卻有一種「柔弱勝剛強」,更深沈穩靜的感覺。

開頭,Dan落地後半條腿碎裂,他痛苦地倒在地上,只能眼睜睜地看著旁人把他化成丁塊的碎片掃走。

講到Dan想成為"the lord of the ring"(字幕翻「吊環之王」)忍不住XD(因為正巧也是魔戒的title)


「你剛才落水的時候腦子裡想著什麼?」(略)「我根本不知道!」「有~而且你還幫它取了個名字『啊~~~~』」

「為什麼要叫我Jack?」「因為是蠢蛋(jackass)的暱稱。」

「你沒學到任何東西,你活在過去(的成就)。今天不用上課了,回去」

車禍復原後的Dan到體育館跟兩個同伴說真心話道歉時,同伴假裝心臟病發表示震驚(實在太機八了XD)

「把垃圾拿去丟掉」「為什麼要我去」「我是指這裡」(老人以手指敲了敲男主角的額頭)
「告訴我刷馬桶能學到什麼!」「例如~放下你的驕傲」

「只要摒除心中一切雜念」說法;Socrates抓住Dan雙肩讓他瞬時有千里眼順風耳(耳聰目明的極致表現),還要禁酒肉禁煙禁慾,頗有東方哲理or練武or禪宗心法的味道~

「不要問這麼瑣碎的問題。」讓我想到某K。

「有時候要發瘋才能大徹大悟」

片中把Dan的恐懼、執念、自大具象化成另一個他,甩手讓那個形象墜下便象徵摒除那個黑暗的自己。

Dan Millman: I took for granted what I could do. I was sloppy with my life; I'm scared but I feel like I got rid of all the old stuff and it was the right thing to do.

國外的大學校園環境很美,草地上的學生、小橋流水感覺很乾淨;要是掉進醉月湖可就囧了。

戶外的吊環架好嗨~


如果說「水」的意象代表洗淨與自省:Dan被Socrates推落河中;Dan獨自在淋浴間沖水沈思的那一幕,還有後來在大雨中練習身影映在牆上的景象。


Socrates: Everything has a purpose, even this, and it's up to you to find it.

Socrates: A warrior does not give up what he loves, he finds the love in what he does.

Dan Millman: There are no ordinary moments.
Socrates: This moment is the only thing that matters.

Socrates: There's no greater purpose than service to others.

女生有點像Milla Jovovich
Joy: [to Dan, touching his chest] I don't think your leg was the only thing that got broken.


Socrates: It's the journey, not the destination.
Dan Millman: The journey is what brings us happiness not the destination.


Dan Millman: The ones who are hardest to love are usually the ones who need it the most.
Socrates: Those who are the hardest to love, need it the most.

Socrates: There is no starting or stopping - only doing.

Socrates: Everyone wants to tell you what to do and what's good for you. They don't want you to find your own answers, they want you to believe theirs.
Dan Millman: Let me guess, and you want me to believe yours.
Socrates: No, I want you to stop gathering information from the outside and start gathering it from the inside.



Socrates: People are not theirs thoughts, they think they are, and it brings them all kinds of sadness.

Dan Millman: Life has just three rules? Socrates: And you already know them... Dan Millman: Paradox, humour, and change.
Socrates: Paradox...
Dan Millman: Life is a mystery. Don't waste time trying to figure it out. Socrates: Humour...
Dan Millman: Keep a sense of humour, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure.
Socrates: Change...
Dan Millman: Know that nothing stays the same.

Socrates: Death isn't sad. The sad thing is: most people don't live at all.



Socrates: Where are you?
Dan Millman: Here.
Socrates: What time is it?
Dan Millman: Now.
Socrates: What are you?
Dan Millman: This moment.
