Liberating

Hannah: It's really liberating to say no

to shit you hate.

Girls (2012)

Karma is a Bitch

The funny thing about revenge
is that most of the times

when it finally strikes

you don’t really care anymore.

Gone with the Wind (1939)

Stuff We Leave Behind (2)

After All This Time

Da una lacrima sul viso

Ho capito molte cose

Dopo tanti, tanti mesi ora so

Cosa sono per te

Uno sguardo ed un sorriso

M'han svelato il tuo segreto

Che sei stata innamorata di me

Ed ancora lo sei

Non ho mai capito, non sapevo che

Che tu, che tu, tu mi amavi ma

Come me, non trovavi mai

Il coraggio di dirlo, ma poi...

Quella lacrima sul viso

É un miracolo d'amore

Che si avvera in questo istante per me

E non amo che te

Bobby Solo - Una Lacrima Sul Viso

We Are Who We Are

Bill: Clark Kent is how Superman views us.

And what are the characteristics of Clark Kent.

He's weak... he's unsure of himself... he's a coward.

Clark Kent is Superman's critique on the whole human race.

Sorta like Beatrix Kiddo and Mrs. Tommy Plimpton.

I'm calling you a killer. A natural born killer.

You always have been, and you always will be.

Moving to El Paso, working in a used record store,

goin' to the movies with Tommy, clipping coupons.

That's you, trying to disguise yourself as a worker bee.

That's you tryin' to blend in with the hive.

But you're not a worker bee. You're a renegade killer bee.

And no matter how much beer you drank or barbecue you ate

or how fat your ass got, nothing in the world would ever change that.

Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

Every man I have ever known has fallen in love with Gilda…

and awakened with me.

Rita Hayworth

Kiss Quick, I've got a line out the door
Who all think they can save me.
One by one they lay the world at my feet.
One by one they go away.
Matt Nathanson - Kiss Quick

Requiem For a Love

Marion: I love you, Harry. You make me feel like a person.

Like I'm me... and I'm beautiful.

Harry: You are beautiful.

You're the most beautiful girl in the world.

You are my dream.

Just like that.

Times are hard for dreamers.

In The End

"Let it go. It's no use.

This is one thing I've learned about life:

you'll never end up with the one you love.

R. L., Porto, February 2012, 4 am.

***

Sarah: Love doesn't end, just because we don't see each other.

Maurice: Doesn't it?

Sarah:People go on loving God, don't they? All their lives. Without seeing him.

Maurice:That's not my kind of love.

Sarah:Maybe there is no other kind.

The End of the Affair (1999)

Garbage

Love is everywhere.

That’s why it is so simple.

You only have to wait and let the garbage pass by.

Soundtracks: Pain

Some old wounds never truly heal,

and bleed again at the slightest chord.

 

Desire

Sex is the consolation you have

when you can't have love.

Gabriel García Márquez

Tarot

This is definitely a time of deep transformation,

likely to be both inner and outwardly in your life.

Situations, things, and people that you have counted on or gotten used to

may no longer be available to you in quite the same way as they once were,

and this transition can be difficult for some people.

Dignity

Being alone: there's a certain dignity to it.
