"The yellow eyes are really the soul of the dog. He has this piercing stare. People say the dog keeps talking to them with the eyes, always saying something different. People who have seen a Blue Dog painting always remember it. They are really about life, about mankind searching for answers. The dog never changes position. He just stares at you. And you’re looking at him, looking for some answers, ‘Why are we here?,’ and he’s just looking back at you, wondering the same. The dog doesn’t know. You can see this longing in his eyes, this longing for love, answers."
— Rodrigue on the Blue Dog
"Why are we here?" You are called for a meeting in the College-Principal's cabin. The notice says, "Urgent" It also says, "The agenda will be placed on the table." And we assemble, wait, and ask each other in whispers, "Why are we here?"
ReplyDeleteImagine, then he comes; puts on a grave face, like this dog, and we read on his face, "I have no answers!" Funny, isn't it?
