Transcript
00:00This weekend, you are not in your office, you are not surrounded by people,
00:03and there is nothing to do. You are not surrounded even by work.
00:06Have you felt the tremendous scare that these moments pose? That is loneliness.
00:11And if you cannot live with these moments, you pick up your mobile,
00:15call up your boyfriend and say, can we meet over dinner?
00:17You have given yourself a cheap solution.
00:20Or you would pick up the mobile phone and start looking at some website.
00:24Okay, so what is happening in the football league?
00:26What is happening in the presidential elections?
00:28Is it really the presidential elections that you care for?
00:32No, you are just deceiving yourself. Keep in touch with your loneliness.
00:36Those who suppress their loneliness become victims of suppression.
00:40Those who keep in touch with their loneliness come up with great creativity.
00:44Beautiful songs have risen out of human melancholy.
00:48People talk of songs you can enjoy. I say that all songs that have any truth in them
00:55have actually risen from the honest depth of man's suffering.
