I saw you
“The summer had inhaled and held its breath too long
The winter looked the same, as if it never had gone
And through an open window where no curtain hung
I saw you, I saw you comin’ back to me
(…)
Strolling the hills overlooking the shore
I realized I’ve been there before
The shadow in the mist could have been anyone
I saw you, I saw you comin’ back to me…”
(Jefferson Airplane, Comin’ Back to Me)
A place
“A place belongs forever to whoever claims it hardest, remembers it most obsessively, wrenches it from itself, shapes it, renders it, loves it so radically that he remakes it in his own image.”
(Joan Didion)
Take
“Take me with you. I want a doomed love. I want streets at night, wind and rain, no one wondering where I am.”
(Michael Cunningham, The Hours)
Right then – Me and Alice XII
“I remember one morning getting up at dawn, there was such a sense of possibility. You know, that feeling? And I remember thinking to myself: So, this is the beginning of happiness. This is where it starts. And of course there will always be more. It never occurred to me it wasn’t the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment. Right then.”
(Michael Cunningham, The Hours)
94 years of beauty (talking to me)
“That is what we do. That is what people do. They stay alive for each other.”
(Michael Cunningham, The Hours)
Alive II – Me and Alice XI
“We make each other alive; it doesn’t make a difference if it hurts.”
(Ingmar Bergman)
2 years of beauty (around me)
“There are moments when I can wander through my childhood’s landscape, through rooms long ago, remember how they were furnished, where the pictures hung on the walls, the way the light fell. It’s like a film – little scraps of a film, which I set running and which I can reconstruct to the last detail…”
(Ingmar Bergman)
