'Heaven & Earth' Ending Quote
Le Ly Hayslip, in one of my favorite movies, HEAVEN AND EARTH:
When we resist our fate we suffer.
When we accept it we are happy.
We have time in abundance, an eternity, to repeat our mistakes. But we need only once correct our mistake and at last hear the song of enlightenment, with which we can break the chain of vengeance forever. In your heart you can hear it now. It is the song your spirit has been singing since the moment of your birth.
If the monks are right, and nothing happens without cause, then the gift of suffering is to bring us closer to God, to teach us to be strong when we are weak, to be brave when we are afraid, to be wise in the midst of confusion and to let go of that which we can no longer hold.
Lasting victories are won in the heart, not on this land or that.
