Yet now many will be found to deny his greatness.

Again another week of riding the train, following classes, doing some tasks and crazy shit.

I'm starting to grow a profound dislike of going by train to Brussels every day. It comes in waves which is probably the only good thing about that feeling.
I finished Bukowski and I'm reading a non-fictional book, called Eichmann In Jerusalem by the Jewish author Hannah Arendt. Actually I'm reading the shorter version, I'll probably buy the extended version one day. It's interesting to see how a Jew looks upon a Nazi criminal and at the same time thinks that Eichmann has neither a antisemitic personality or a great mind. He became the person as the world knows him by the incentives that were given to him. She got a lot of criticism for this idea, mainly by orthodox Jews.

Every year I look forward to the Filmfestival in my hometown, it gives one the opportunity to see some films that you probably won't go see in a normal cinema. Anyway I saw Hunger by the Steve McQueen, it was the strongest film I have seen so far this year. Michael Fassbender plays the IRA leader Bobby Sands in the 1981 Hunger Strike in the prison HM Prison Maze which he does extremely strong. If you like your film with a clear and strong message with a stunning photography and performances, I sincerely advise you to give it a chance.

The blogtitle comes from a book called A Moon And Sixpence written by my favorite author W. Somerset Maugham, I only changed it a bit. 

peace
