Dead Poets Society (1989) - What will your verse be?

Фильм және анимация

My favourite scene in my favourite movie by my favourite actor: the meaning of life in a verse by Walt Whitman "That you are here, that life exists and identity, that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse".
Dead Poets Society (1989) directed by Peter Weir
with Robin Williams | Robert Sean Leonard | Ethan Hawke
WHAT WILL YOUR VERSE BE?
John Keating:
Words and language - no matter what anybody tells you - words and ideas can change the world.
I see that look in Mr Pitts' eye, like "19th century literature has nothing to do with going to business school or medical school", right? Maybe.
Mr Hopkins you may agree with him thinking "yes we should simply study our Mr Pritchard and learn our rhyme and meter and go quietly about the business of achieving other ambitions".
A little secret for you, huddle up. Huddle up!
We don't read and write poetry because it's cute.
We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race, and the human race is filled with passion.
Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.
But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
To quote from Whitman: O me! O life! of the questions of these recurring,
of the endless trains of the faithless
of cities filled with the foolish
what good amid these, O me! O life!
Answer: That you are here, that life exists and
identity, that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse
That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse
What will your verse be?

    “What is a poet? An unhappy man who hides deep anguish in his heart, but whose lips are so formed that when the sigh and cry pass through them, it sounds like lovely music.... And people flock around the poet and say: 'Sing again soon' - that is, 'May new sufferings torment your soul but your lips be fashioned as before, for the cry would only frighten us, but the music, that is blissful.” ― Soren Kierkegaard

    Hey! If you are seeing this, I just wanted to let you know that Jesus loves you! He loves you so much that He died on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead so that you could be saved from sin and the wrath of God! This is the Gospel; you can be saved from God’s wrath and hell if you believe and trust in Jesus! God Bless you all!!

    This scene reminds me of the movie and book, Contact, by Carl Segan. When the main character (Jodi Foster) is traveling though the wormhole and first sees the alien civilization she cries out "It's so beautiful, so beautiful. I don't have the words to describe it. They should have sent a poet." I have sent numerous letters and emails to NASA begging them to dedicate just one mission to artists. Send up a painter, a writer, a poet, and a musician and see what they come up with. We have seen the photographs and we have all read the science, but we should give at least one trip to pure art.

    This is an amazing movie. Instead of studying the data on education that colleges provide, get yourself a bottle of wine and learn about teaching from a master of the art. Learn from his genius and his mistakes. If I was interviewing a prospective teacher, I would base the interview on this movie and what the interviewee made of it. The teaching profession has become obsessed with data (Harari), yet the world has moved on by the time it has been gathered and analyzed. Everything Keating does in that classroom is based on his own passion for literature and a basic understanding of the nature of the kids he teaches. If he was around today, the bigwigs would ignore him - 'the guy's got no data to back up his pedagogy - take no notice of him'. The one thing we never seem to do in education is to listen to the only genuine experts we have - classroom teachers. Thank you for posting Alessandra.

But assuming I can maybe make an inference he's saying something about the human condition. That regardless of where a person (station) they can use their influence to make the world better. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.
