책은 도끼다

박웅현이라는 광고전문가의 책을 통해 인사이트를 어떻게 얻게 되는지를 설명한 강연을 모아 놓은 책.

*우리가 읽은 책이 우리 머리를 주먹으로 한 대 쳐서 우리를 잠에서 깨우지 않는다면,

 도대체 왜 우리가 그 책을 읽은 거지? 책이란 무릇, 우리 안에 있는 꽁꽁 얼어버린 바다를

 깨뜨려버리는 도끼가 아니면 안 되는 거야

                              -1904년 1월, 카프카, '저자의 말' [변신] 중에서

김훈작가의 이야기를 하면서 나온 Jazz그룹 'Pink Martini'의 'Splendor in the Grass'

노래 들으면서 오랫만에 감동을 받았다. 

여러분도 꼭 한 번 들어보시기를...

I can see you're thinking babyI've been thinking tooabout the way we used to beand how to star a new
Maybe I'm a hopeless dreamermaybe I've got it wrongbut i'm going where the grass is greenif you like to come along
Back when i was starting outI always wanted morebut every time I got itI still felt just like before
Fortune is a fickle friendI'm tired of chasing fateand when I look into your eyesI know you feel the same
All these years of living largeare starting to do a sinI wont say it wasn't funbut now it has to end
Life is moving oh so fastI think we should take it slowrest our heads upon the grassand listen to it grow
Going where the hills are greenand the cars are few and fardays are full of splendorand at night you can see the stars
Life's been moving oh so fastI think we should take it slowrest our heads upon the grassand listen to it grow
