to fight

Wed Jun 21, 2006, 6:58 AM
Just open any dictionary. To fight means to set one's will against the will of another, with the aim of defeating the opponent, to bring him to his knees, possibly to kill him. "life is a battle" is a proposition that must at first have expressed melancholy and resignation. But our century of optimism and massacres has succeeded in making this terrible sentence sound like a joyous refrain. You will say that to fight against somebody may be terrible, but to fight for something is noble and beautiful. Yes, it is beautiful to strive for happiness (or love, or justice, and so on), but if you are in the habit of designating your striving with the word "fight," it means that your noble striving conceals the longing to knock someone to the ground. The fight for is always connected with the fight against, and the preposition "for" is always forgotten in the course of the fight in favor of the preposition "against."
from Immortality by Milan Kundera

Hello and welcome to DA. I love your stuff. Keep it up. It's amazingly poignant.
:iconmortephile:
Some of your work is surreal, other thought-provoking, others yet sarcastic and the rest heart-breaking. Don’t wish to sound cruel, but I’m looking forward to seeing what other moods you can be slammed into and are able to capture in words… Shall be waiting for those, and anything else you may present us with…
