"You can say I can't sing, but you can't say I don't sing.
There are so many things we want to do and so many times when we back off. But what is the meaning of life? In fact, it is very simple, it is to do what you want to do as much as you can within your ability. I probably know I can't do that well, and I don't even know how to do it at all. But I want to do it, so I'm going to do it. This is something that many people in life do not have the courage to do. Could Jenkins really not see that she was being laughed at by the people offstage? That's impossible, she's someone who doesn't like to think, but she's not a fool. Even if she is laughed at, she is still passionate about what she loves. She is a person who is easy to satisfy. As long as someone is willing to applaud her, she can keep singing.
She spends a lot of money on music, you would say rich people can do whatever they want. But even if she is penniless and living on the streets, I believe she will still keep singing.
life, life, life. These big headlines are never important. What matters is only our heart, our perception. The only thing that matters is whether we are kind, and the only thing that matters is whether we are happy. Jenkins has all the qualities I want, she has all the things I want in her life. I like her life.
There are too many smart people, and the world needs more "idiots" like Jenkins to have a higher happiness index.


When her husband said "you know you love her" to the pianist, I thought it was abrupt. But after reading it I found out. How could anyone not love her? :)

Florence Foster Jenkins quotes

  • St Clair Bayfield: Are you fond of sandwiches?

    Cosmé McMoon: Yes.

    St Clair Bayfield: Good, good. Madam Florence is inordinately fond of sandwiches. And potato salad as well. When we throw parties we make mountains of the stuff. It would serve you well to consume both with enthusiasm.

    Cosmé McMoon: I shall.

  • St Clair Bayfield: If you can forgive Madam Florence her little eccentricities, you'll find her to be a most generous and delightful person. Ours is a very happy world.
