“Astăzi vrei totul, imedat şi simultan: dragoste nebună, dar şi siguranţă, fidelitate, dar şi deschidere faţă de lume, copilul, dar şi libertate absolută, monogamia, dar şi ameţelile libertinajului.

“The beauty of that June day was almost staggering.

― Julie Delpy, Before Sunrise & Before Sunset: Two Screenplays

“some moments are nice, some are
nicer, some are even worth
