It wasn't what I saw that stopped me.
It was what I didn't see.
Can you understand that?
What I didn't see.
In all that sprawling city, there was everything except an end.
There was everything.
But there wasn't an end.
What I couldn't see was where all that came to an end.
The end of the world.
Take a piano.
The keys begin, the keys end.
You know there are 88 of them
and no-one can tell you differently.
They are not infinite, you are infinite.
And on those 88 keys the music that you can make is infinite.
I like that.
That I can live by.
But you get me up on that gangway and roll out a keyboard with millions of keys
,
and that's the truth, there's no end to them, that keyboard is infinite.
But if that keyboard is infinite there's no music you can play.
You're sitting on the wrong bench.
That's God's piano.
Christ, did you see the streets?
There were thousands of them!
How do you choose just one?
One woman, one house, one piece of land to call your own, one landscape to look
at, one way to die.
All that world weighing down on you without you knowing where it ends.
Aren't you scared of just breaking apart just thinking about it, the enormity o
f living in it?
I was born on this ship.
The world passed me by, but two thousand people at a time.
And there were wishes here, but never more than could fit on a ship, between pr
ow and stern.
You played out your happiness on a piano that was not infinite.
I learned to live that way.
Land, is a ship too big for me.
It's a woman too beautiful.
It's a voyage too long.
Perfume too strong.
It's music I don't know how to make.
I can't get off this ship.
At best, I can step off my life.
After all, it's as though I never existed.
You're the exception, Max.
You're the only one who knows that I'm here.
You're a minority.
You'd better get used to it.
Forgive me, my friend.
But I'm not getting off.


以下為翻譯
並不是我看見的東西阻止了我,而是那些我看不見的,你能理解嗎?
我看不到的東西,在那個林立的城市堙A就是沒有個盡頭。
那堣偵繷ㄕ部A就是沒有盡頭。
我不能看到的是所有這些都去向那堙A世界的盡頭。
拿鋼琴來說,有起始鍵、結束鍵。
你知道他們共有88個,沒有人會說不是。
他們是有限的,你是無限的,在這些88個琴鍵上,你可以使他們無限。
我喜歡那樣,那樣我可以生活。
但是你讓我走到踏板上,去彈奏上百萬的琴鍵,是真的,那沒有盡頭,那個鍵盤是無限的

但是如果那個鍵盤是無限的,你無法演奏出音樂,你坐錯凳子了。
那是上帝的鋼琴,上帝啊,你看見那些街道了嗎?
有成千上萬條!,你怎樣只選一條?
一個女人、一幢房子、你自己的一塊土地、看一個風景、一條死路。
所有的世界壓在你身上,你卻不知道它的盡頭在哪兒,你難倒不害怕嗎

想一想,生活在那個大怪物中?
我出生在這艘船上,世界從我身邊跑過,但是一次只有2000人。
這埵釦き獢A但是永遠也不會超出一個船的容量。
從船頭到船尾,你把自己的快樂用鋼琴演奏出來。
那不是無限的,我習慣那樣生活了。
陸地,對我來說是個太大的船了。
就像一個女人太漂亮、一段旅程太長了、香氣太重了。
我不知道如何作曲,我不能離開這船。
最好的是,我可以丈量我的生活。
畢竟,我好像從沒有存在過。
你是個例外,麥克斯。
你是唯一知道我在這兒的人,你是少數,你最好要習慣這個。
原諒我,我的朋友。
但是我不會下船
