Before Midnight (2013)

Partager la citation sur facebook You know what I think? I think from the time we leave our parents house until we have kids - that's the only time your life is completely your own. You know I think I had about a decade of that. It was great. It was just like one long, flowing... a day, a week, a year, there wasn't much difference.

Partager la citation sur facebook I remember thinking: this is the natural human state - always a little dissatisfied, perpetually discontented, you know?

Partager la citation sur facebook Natalia: Like sunlight, sunset, we appear, we disappear. We are so important to some, but we are just passing through.

Partager la citation sur facebook Céline: If we were meeting for the first time today on a train, would you find me attractive?
Jesse: Of course.
Céline: No, but really, right now as I am? Would you start talking to me? Would you ask me to get off the train with you?
[Both laugh]
Jesse: Well, I mean, you're asking a theoretical question. I mean, what would my life situation be? I mean technically, wouldn't I be cheating on you?
Céline: Okay. Why can't you just say "yes"?
Jesse: No, I did. I said, "of course"! That was -
Céline: No-no-no! I wanted you to say something romantic and you blew it.
Jesse: Oh, okay. Alright, wait - if I saw you on a train, okay, listen. I would lock eyes with you.
Céline: Uh-huh.
Jesse: And then I'd walk right up to you and I'd say, "Hey, baby. You are making me as horny as a billy goat in a briar patch."
[He grabs her butt.]
Céline: Stop it, that's disgusting! Billy goat. No, the truth is, you failed the test. And the fact is, you would not pick me up on a train. You wouldn't even notice me, a fat-assed middle-aged mom, losing her hair.
Jesse: Okay. [Laughing] Losing her hair?
Céline: Yeah, that's me!
Jesse: You set me up to fail. Honestly, you did.
Céline: Okay, true. True.
Jesse: Alright? Alright? But in the real world, baldy, on game day when it mattered, I did talk to you on a train. I did that, it was the best thing I ever did.

Partager la citation sur facebook Céline: So if we're going to spend another fifty-six more years together...
Jesse: Yeah?
Céline: What about me would you like to change?
Jesse: [Smirks] That's another one of your can't-win questions. I'm not answering that.
Céline: What do you mean? There's not one thing you'd like to change about me? I'm perfect?
Jesse: Okay.
Céline: Okay.
Jesse: Actually...
Céline: One thing.
Jesse: If I could change one thing about you...
Céline: Uh-huh.
Jesse: It would be for you to stop trying to change me.
Céline: You're a very skilled manipulator, you know that?
Jesse: Well, I'm onto you. I know how you work.
Céline: You think?
Jesse: Yeah. I know everything about you.

Partager la citation sur facebook Céline: Do you remember this friend of mine? George, from New York.
Jesse: No.
Céline: Oh, no, that was before. That was before.
Jesse: What was?
Céline: He was this friend of mine that, when he found out he had leukemia, and he was probably going to die, he confessed to me that the first thing that came to his mind was relief.
Jesse: Relief? But why?
Céline: Well, before he found out he had nine months to live he was always so worried about money, and now his thought was, great! I have more than enough money to live for the next nine months, I've made it!
Jesse: [laughing] Oh, okay.
Céline: And then he was finally able to enjoy everything about life, even like being stuck in traffic. He would just enjoy looking at people... staring at their faces. Just little things.

Partager la citation sur facebook Jesse: I am giving you my whole life OK? I got nothing larger to give, I'm not giving it to anybody else. If you're looking for permission to disqualify me, I'm not gonna give it to you. OK? I love you. And I'm not in conflict about it. OK? But if what you want is like a laundry list of all the things that piss me off, I can give it to you.
Céline: Yeah, I want to hear.
Jesse: Okay well, number 1, you're fucking nuts! You are. Good luck! Find somebody else to put up with your shit for more than like 6 months, okay? But I accept the whole package, the crazy and the brilliant. I know you're not gonna change and I don't want you to. It's called accepting you for being you.

Partager la citation sur facebook Jesse: You're just like the little girls and everybody else. You wanna live inside some fairy tale. I'm just trying to make things better. I tell you that I love you unconditionally, I tell you that you're beautiful, I tell you that your ass looks great when you're 80. I try to make you laugh.
Céline: OK.
Jesse: All right, I put up with plenty of your shit. And if you think I'm just some dog who's gonna keep coming back, then you're wrong. But if you want true love, then this is it. This is real life. It's not perfect, but it's real. And if you can't see it, then you're blind, all right, and I give up.

Partager la citation sur facebook Jesse: Do you think it could be tonight that you're still talking about in your 80s?
Céline: Well, it must have been one hell of a night we're about to have.
