The
quote ''Oh the horror...the horror''is the last sentence Kurtz says
to people before he dies. This scene from ''Heart
of Darkness'' reminds me of the chapter when Simon
discovers that the beast is a human being in the ''Lord
of the Flies''. Things happen mysteriously and come to
nothing. The most you can hope is that you learn something about
yourself. Like the way Kurtz chooses death, or like how the beast is
a dead parachutist, sometimes things development much differently
than how we would image. Nonetheless, we still need to face life and
we must be brave and wise enough to live. For instance, when Simon
realizes the truth, he thinks deeply and worries a lot. Likewise,
Marlow holds the idea that life is a more difficult puzzle than some
of us think. Accordingly, it is necessary and meaningful to
contemplate life and reflect so that we become mature and
experienced.
