"she would buy the flowers herself.
in a single day. Just one day.
And in that day... her whole life.
This is what we need, shortening."
At the end of the movie, I always think of the opening sentences talk.
A language has its own syllables and sense of rhythm, has its own meaning, and cannot be translated. You can only feel it, marvel at its beauty and be moved by it.


"always to look life in the face,
and to know it for what it is.
at last, to love it for what it is,
and then to put it away." For
so many years, I have been thinking about these sentences.
"Please face your life." To know it for what it is means to understand your life. To love it for what it is means to live in your real life.

"I wanted to write about it all.
Everything that happens in a moment.
The way the flowers look when you carry them in your arms.
Towel the this, How IT Smells, How IT Feels ...
IT's the Thread.
All Our Feelings, Yours and Mine.
At The History of IT.
The Who Once WE were. Everything in at The world. Everything Mixed up. "
From the window of a man falling What
he said . He also said, you love me because you use it to escape your own life, and you use me to escape your own life.
The piano sound at that moment is not any other musical instrument. The
cold-toned sunlight outside the window is like a winter morning, although The movie insisted that it was three thirty in the afternoon.


"If I were thinking clearly, Leonard, I would tell you:
that I wrestle alone...
in the dark, in the deep dark and that only I can know...
only I can understand my own condition.
You live with the threat, you tell me. You live with the threat of my extinction.
Leonard, I live with it too.
This is my right.
It is the right of every human being.
I choose not the suffocating anesthetic of these suburbs...
but the violent jolt of the capital, that is my choice!
The meanest patient, just even the very lowest, is allowed some say
in the matter of her own prescription.
Thereby she defines her humanity.
I wish, for your sake, Leonard, that I were happy in this quietness
but if it is choice between Richmond and death...
I choose death."
This is the station dialogue.
"I am alone in the darkness, in the deep darkness, only I can understand the darkness I face.
What I have to face is turbulence and restlessness, that is my inner desire and my nature.
Because of you, I wish I could be happy in the peace and quiet of this small town. However, if I were to choose between death and staying in Richmond, I would choose death. "


If you escape from life itself, you will never find peace.
"You cannot find peace by avoiding life, Leonard."
