"Quand je vous parle de moi, je vous parle de vous."

Gaspard Ulliel (1984-2022)

 Before Sunset (2004) dir. Richard Linklater

“I believe if there’s any kind of God, it wouldn’t be in any of us – not you or me. But just this little space in between.

probably my favorite thing ever; the 4 stages of a woman’s life. from The Mirror (1975, Andrei Tarkovsky)

day 7: free choice - happiness

day 6: reasons to love Elizabeth - her strength and kindness

day 4: favourite quote → F: Oh yes, of course! You will always stand up for Ross! E: I stand up for no one, but it is the merest justice not to condemn people unheard!

day 3: favourite relationship → Elizabeth + having friends at all

 You must know this was never what he intended for you. And yet, it is how it is. And we shall weather it. Retrench, make economies. There are many worse off than we. Let Francis feel sorry for himself. I will not do so.
