About sex, there is a more obscure fact, sex has a certain essence. This nature, many people will take for granted as love, feel that this is a common misunderstanding in almost all research on sex.
The nature of sex has many facets: control, possession, reproduction, destruction, play, and confrontation with meaninglessness. . . Sex is destructive, and he goes against love, but almost always brushes aside. If you always pass by, then who will leave? . A few times, if you're lucky enough sex leaves, love stays. You will reap a lasting relationship. And almost most of the time, sex and love have left one after another, leaving only oneself, alone against the emptiness. So you see, sex always leaves. It is like a galloping train, no matter how enthusiastic the wind is when it is approaching, it cannot prevent him from being destined to crash away in the near future. Therefore, every stop of sex is melancholy. Based on such poetry and melancholy, all literary and artistic works, including films, that deeply explore sexuality have naturally complex and even profound textual meanings.

Nymphomaniac: Vol. II quotes

  • Joe's Father: I've found my tree. My soul tree. And no, it's not that one, okay, 'cause then I would be dead.

    [shows Joe a large oak tree]

    Joe's Father: This is my tree.

    Joe - 10 Years: It's not an ash tree.

    Joe's Father: No, it's an oak tree.

    Joe - 10 Years: It has two trunks.

    Joe's Father: Yeah, isn't it great? It shows itself to both sides, the lake and the forest.

    Joe - 10 Years: But, dad, how does a tree get two trunks?

    Joe's Father: The most common reason is that the top broke when it was very young.

    Joe - 10 Years: That means that you've been broken once. Have you, dad?

    Joe's Father: [long pause] It seems that it can be rather revealing... to find your soul tree.

  • [opening narration for "The Gun"]

    Joe: Whether I left society or it left me, I cannot say. I suppose you can make an argument for both sides. I was on my way to the shady side of the debt collecting business, which, among other things, involved stuff like burning people's cars.
