Closing Dad's words:

- You are too smart to not know how precious and special your friendship is. - Oliver, it's Oliver. Oliver is very smart... -- more than smart... you have nothing to do with being smart. He is kind and how lucky you are to meet each other because you are also kind. - I think he, he is kinder than me. - I'm sure he would say the same to you. Yes, say the same thing.

The two of you complement each other, and when we were most caught off guard, God cunningly found our most vulnerable place. Just remember, I'm here. Right now you may not think about what you feel, or you never wanted to feel. Or you don't want to pour these things out to me, but -- please feel what you feel. You have a wonderful friendship, perhaps more than friendship. I admire you. In my opinion, most parents want this to go away. Pray that their children will stop here.

But - I'm not such a parent.

In order to heal quickly, we take so much of ourselves that by the age of thirty we are emotionally bankrupt. Every time we start a new relationship, we have less to give. But what a waste not to feel anything in order for us not to feel it. Did I say something wrong? -Then let me say one more thing. Let's be honest, I may have come close, but I've never had what you have. There is always something blocking me, or standing in front of me.

How you live your life is your own business, you just have to remember. Our bodies and minds are given to us only once, and your mind is exhausted before you realize it. As for your body, there will come a day when no one will look at him again, let alone approach him.

Right now, you are full of sadness, pain, and now, don't let that sadness go away. And don't lose the joy you feel.

    I am convinced by the director's aesthetic. Overall a captivating film, and unlike many gay films, this one is a bit less rough and more tender and delicate. The hammer legs are so pretty and Timothée is such a cutie.

Call Me by Your Name quotes

  • Oliver: The Cosmic Fragments by Heraclitus: The meaning of the river flowing is not that all things are changing so that we cannot encounter them twice, but that some things stay the same only by changing.

  • Annella Perlman: [Reading from The Heptaméron] A handsome young knight is madly in love with a princess, and she too is in love with him, though she seems not to be entirely aware of it. Despite the friendship that blossoms between them, or perhaps because of that very friendship, the young knight finds himself so humbled and speechless that he is totally unable to bring up the subject of his love. Until one day he asks the princess point-blank: Is it better to speak or to die?

    Elio: I'll never have the courage to ask a question like that.

    Mr. Perlman: I doubt that. Hey, Elly-Belly. You do know that you can always talk to us?
