alive

It's like a light rain when you're strolling down the empty street with the warm sunshine of early autumn at 3:30 in the afternoon. You instinctively know that you should take shelter from the rain at a random street store, but the rain is gentle and non-aggressive. Whether your clothes are waterproof or not, whether they will discolor due to water, these considerations are all affected by the rain. The frivolity of being held in place cannot be invoked by your brain. So you are wrapped in the rain with peace of mind, and the sun is replaced by a spotlight that accurately and quickly locates you on this boundless street. You can't run away, you don't know that in ten minutes the light rain will suddenly turn into a storm. This is your life.

Vivre Sa Vie quotes

  • The Philosopher: Do you know anyone who knows right off what he loves? No. When you're 20, you don't know. All you know are bits and pieces. You grasp at experience. At that age, "I love" is a mixture of many things. To be completely at one with what you love takes maturity. That means searching. That's the truth of life.

  • Jeune homme: I'd like to go to the Louvre.

    Nana: No, I don't like looking at paintings.

    Jeune homme: Why? Art and beauty are life!

    Nana: I adore you.
