A Farewell to "Oz"

Feb 26, 2003 15:55

Final words from the show (no spoilers):

"So. What have we learned? What's the lesson for today; for all the never-ending days and restless nights in Oz? That morality is transient? That virtue cannot exist without violence. That to be honest is to be flawed. That the giving and taking of love both debases and elevates us? That God or Allah or Yahweh has answers to questions we dare not even ask.

The story is simple. A man lives in prison and dies. How he dies? That's easy. The who and the why is the complex part. The human part. The only part worth knowing.

Peace."

Damn. DAY-ummmm. Another Truth BombTM from Augustus. That's writing with chops... and a fitting way to end an amazing show.

*sigh*
