Remarried

Will: You ever think about gettin' remarried?
Sean: My wife's dead.
Will: Hence the word: remarried.
Sean: She's dead.
Will: Yeah; well, I think that's a super philosophy, Sean. I mean, that way you could actually go through the rest of your life without ever really knowing anybody.

illusions

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

Lost In Translation

Lösch mir die Augen aus: ich kann dich sehn,
wirf mir die Ohren zu: ich kann dich hören,
und ohne Füße kann ich zu dir gehen,
und ohne Mund noch kann ich dich beschwören.
Brich mir die Arme ab, ich fasse dich
mit meinem Herzen wie mit einer Hand,
halt mir das Herz zu, und mein Hirn wird schlagen,
und wirfst du in mein Hirn den Brand,
so werd ich dich auf meinem Blute tragen.
Rainer Maria Rilke

"Let it go. It's no use.

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

Maurice:That's not my kind of love.
Sarah:Maybe there is no other kind.
