2015.1.8 丈量世界

This afternoon I watch a German film called "Die Vermessung der Welt" (Measuring the World), talking about the life story of Alexander von Humboldt and Carl Friedrich Gauss. In the film, Humboldt is a funny, ambious and full of curiosity, it the film's description is ture, then I must wanted to meet with him had I born in that age. But, it is Gauss that stay in my mind after the film. Gauss is a genius, with such greatness in him he should had went to somewhere and do big things, but he stayed in his hometown, teached at school, cynical to the world, unastisified with all those mudane people around him. I think it's the long term distress that throw him into the ditch of his little circle. From this film I seem to understand why Ben angry with me. Teacher want to teach good student, their enthusiasm lies on cultivating good student, and I depress him. With this in mind, I'll begin getting over my sadness and prepare for a new semester. Wish me luck!
