When Neo was Leaving Zion in the second film, did one of the people (Who Agent Smith was controlling) almost killed Neo. But...the Bald Kids interrupted him.

Now...in the 3rd film, the Ship returning to Zion would not have made it if that same kid did not open the gate.

In the first Film, Neo would not have "Freed his mind" if he did not hear the simple yet true phase.

Some even said the kid is the true one, because he didn't need the red pill to wake up (That scene is in one of the shorts from animatrix)

I have not, but I'm interested to hear about it. I would guess it has something to do with people who are very different being friends because they have traits that complement each other instead of just doubling up?

Yeah, thats likely. The reason of why I'm asking this is because I'm was thinking about the relationship of Mur and Liz, the last secret note seems to hint that they had a complementary freindship, that caught my atention.

soo.. i'm watching and anime and basically the premise is that evry one has to compete for their own wish . someone getting theirs means someone else never gets theirs.
but is that the way it is in real life? are we just competing for our desires, or can we work together twords different goals?

I think it's the second, after all we do form alliances and collaborations that give mutual benefit.

if it was just competition we wouldn't have progress: things like science, transports, buildings and even language require cooperation to work. Imagine if everyone talked in his own language that nobody else understood, it would be a mess and defeat the purpose of communication. And without language a civilization cannot form, we'd be living like animals.

then again, i guess if we collaborate its part of our wish too. if we just want to be a help, it could come from the wish to have friends. in other words, everything we do is to try and make our wish come true even if it dosn't seem like it because our wishes can conflict.
goes with the pleasure principle, that we just seek pleasure through various mediums.

Here an interesting thought.
One that applies to everyone on in the Universe.

"I know everything about everything I know of."

In other words, its just another complicated way of saying:
"I only know so much about this and that."


If you take away the "of" at the ending of the sentence,
then your just saying your a "Know-it-All."
