Happiness is the point, the plain is the face, the self is the line

On a rainy day, it is suitable for watching movies at home.

I've read a lot of stories about marriage lately. Such real pain. Marriage is not the grave of love. But the evolution of love. A piece of paper tries to improve people's nature of liking the new and dislike the old and making society more orderly.

Happiness is not the norm, it is the surprise of the known contentment and the unknown. It is not easy to be content. It's easy to "do" when you're completely dissatisfied, and it's hard to be too content and not motivated.

Blandness is the keynote. There is an explosion of capital day after day. Such patience and execution will keep life going.

The self is always the main thread of life. It is neither possible nor possible to submit to any power of any one. Do what you want to do, do it the same way.

I often regret that there is no campus romance. When it comes to the age, there is no love, only reliability. Reliable boys, reliable girls. I feel scared thinking about it. This is not the life I want. Still willing to use the loneliness for the rest of my life to bet on the surprise of love.

A bunch of unexplained feelings. I just feel that a relationship full of quarrels and love is too real.

Marriage Story quotes

  • Nora Fanshaw: People don't accept mothers who drink too much wine and yell at their child and call him an asshole. I get it. I do it too. We can accept an imperfect dad. Let's face it, the idea of a good father was only invented like 30 years ago. Before that, fathers were expected to be silent and absent and unreliable and selfish, and can all say we want them to be different. But on some basic level, we accept them. We love them for their fallibilities, but people absolutely don't accept those same failings in mothers. We don't accept it structurally and we don't accept it spiritually. Because the basis of our Judeo-Christian whatever is Mary, Mother of Jesus, and she's perfect. She's a virgin who gives birth, unwaveringly supports her child and holds his dead body when he's gone. And the dad isn't there. He didn't even do the fucking. God is in heaven. God is the father and God didn't show up. So, you have to be perfect, and Charlie can be a fuck up and it doesn't matter. You will always be held to a different, higher standard. And it's fucked up, but that's the way it is.

  • Bert Spitz: You know what this is like? This is like that joke about the woman at the hairdresser, she's going to Rome. You know this?

    Charlie: I don't.

    Bert Spitz: This woman is at her hairdresser, and she says, "I'm going to Rome on Holiday." And he says, "Oh, really? What airline are you taking?" She says, "Alitalia." He says, "Alitalia? Are you crazy? That's the worst - that's terrible. Don't take that. Where you gonna stay?" She says, "I'm gonna stay at the Hassler." "The Hassler? What, are you kidding? They're renovating the Hassler. You'll hear hammering all night long. You won't sleep. What are you gonna see?" She says, "I think I'm gonna try to go the Vatican." "The Vatican? You'll be standing in line all day long. You'll never get to see anything."

    Charlie: I'm sorry, Bert, am I paying for this joke?
