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.
