A quote I recently read by acclaimed director David Lynch seemed to mirror an astronaut's (unfortunately i do not recollect his name) statement from the Chilean film, Nostalgia for the Light, directed by Patricio Guzman.
The movie chronicles the relentless search of women for the remains of their loved ones, gone prey to Pinochet's atrocities, in the Atacama desert. (Augusto Pinochet ruled Chile under a dictatorship from 1973 to 1990). Women who exhibit such inner strength and grit, some who have been searching for closure for almost three decades. Their stories are narrated alongside mankind's probing of the sky(astronomy) and the earth(archaeology) to trace the origin of life. Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/0VEIeAa6DiM
Now here are the quotes:
"I don't know why people expect art to make sense. They accept that life doesn't make sense." (David Lynch)
"People understand astronauts, but they fail to understand these women." (From the film, as I remember it).
