@dionysuschrist "He thought of how she who lay beside him had locked in her heart for so many years that image of her lover's eyes when he had told her that he did not wish to live." - "The Dead" - James Joyce

I always wondered where that sample came from.

@ZachValkyrie The part on Take The Time is from Nuovo Cinema Paradiso, an Italian movie internationally released as Cinema Paradiso. The man says "ora che ho perso la vista ci vedo di più", which means "I can see much clearer now I'm blind"
-
funny, i always thought it was a man saying the first quote. lol
-
@tarkuslad now if we can only figure out Take The Time and Honor Thy Father...

Holy crap, how did I not pick up on this when I heard the song? I love James Joyce's stuff.
Haha, cool!
But, why did they put that quote in "6:00"?

I'm guessing that some of the film's subjects - perhaps the losing of an old love that you may never get out of your head - is reinterpreted in the song.
They choose to tell the story of an ordinary man with a humdrum life - hence, the time reference - who tries hard to forget some distressful memory, in the form of a melody, and does nothing about it.. In the film, this kinda mirrors Anjelica Huston's character.
"6 o'clock... and for what?"
wow, what an epifany I had on new year's morning :)

that'll be "The Dead" by John Huston, also known as "Dubliners". It is based on a short story by James Joyce.
