the city

Paris, European-style streets and buildings, dilapidated subway stations, interweaving French and English, people in a hurry... These seem to be no different from Ottawa. Our imaginings of what distant and exotic landscapes will look like are all illusions. The same clouds and wind, the same withered leaves and hustle and bustle, the city may be like this.
But where did those urban feelings come from? There must be a reason for the wishes of those who were born in the old age and the sense of belonging of those souls.
Those reasons may spread in casual details. When I saw the smile of the beautiful Muslim girl in the photo, it shone brightly in the sun; when I saw the red trench coat swaying in the wind, and one hand waved the railing beside me; when I saw the lip prints on Wilde's tomb; When I see that iconic move of the comedian, the beauty of turning a sad face into a smile instantly.
Our lives are the same calm, when some subtle things sneak into the depths of our hearts, we all smile tacitly, from this we know that this is the meaning of our existence.
We are all like that traveler, traveling alone, doing ordinary things, eating ordinary food, and suddenly thought of a beautiful memory from many years ago, and suddenly moved by where we are. We exist, perhaps there are many sorrows, perhaps there are many feelings that are difficult to express, and we suddenly feel the weight of life. Such a poetic experience, these emotions that have been submerged in daily triviality, suddenly emerged. From this we know that this is the meaning of the journey, the journey of the body and the journey of the heart.

    Paris, the capital of romance

    I like the clown film the most. There are Chinese directors in it, but it seems ugly. At least I think so.

Paris, je t'aime quotes

  • The Husband: [In voice-over narration] By acting like a man in love, he became a man in love again.

  • Carol: Sitting there, alone in a foreign country, far from my job and everyone I know, a feeling came over me. It was like remembering something I'd never known before or had always been waiting for, but I didn't know what. Maybe it was something I'd forgotten or something I've been missing all my life. All I can say is that I felt, at the same time, joy and sadness. But not too much sadness, because I felt alive. Yes, alive. That was the moment I fell in love with Paris. And I felt Paris fall in love with me.
