You say I love you, I say stay, I almost say possess me. You said: let's go.

Zu: It's true that she manages the house well, but if everything is calm, she will be lost. She will change her temperament greatly, and her mouth will hurt people.
C: Her character has always been somewhat Napoleon-like.
Zu: She thinks the world is too rich... As a human being, you might as well make a desertion every now and then, and she will publicize it in advance and ask God for forgiveness. Occupy, I'm afraid she will leave us.

Zu: I'm used to her infidelity, but I can't stand her leaving.

Zhan: She won't leave, but she loves your sad character.

Catherine: I wanted to heal his weaknesses with my heartyness, but they turned out to be part of his character. Our happiness will not last long. In the end, they were forced to face each other, unable to become one.

Accounting: When Catherine does one thing without hurting others, she is not necessarily right, she just wants to have fun and learn life, she also wants to be wiser, and it will be endless.

Nothing can be created between them, I think. It is beautiful to rediscover the laws of life, but it is too easy to cling to the laws of existence. We play with the source of life and fail.

Jules and Jim quotes

  • Jules: The most important factor in any relationship is the woman's fidelity. The husband's is secondary. Who was it who wrote, "Woman is natural, therefore abominable?"

    Jim: Baudelaire, but he was describing a certain world.

    Jules: Not at all. He spoke of women in general. What he says about a young girl is magnificent: "Horror, monster, assassin of the arts, little fool, little slut. The greatest idiocy combined with the greatest depravity." Wait. I'm not finished. This is marvelous: "I'm always astonished they allow women inside churches. What could they possibly have to say to God?"

    Catherine: You're both fools.

  • Jim: I understand.

    Catherine: I don't want to be understood. It's almost dawn.
