This was a hard one. There are so many things that strike me as beautiful, or melancholy, or perfect. Just things that have been said in a way no one's said it before. It says something that you've felt or thought in such a precise, perfect way that you can't help but love it.
These are my favourites:
"We accept the love we think we deserve." - Perks
"I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually ache in places you didn't know you had inside you. And it doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends...you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell, for that brief moment, you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he'll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long that may be, you'll go somewhere new. And you'll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all of that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade." - Kate Winslet as Iris in the Holiday
"We are intrepid. We carry on." -Kirstin Dunst as Claire Colburn in Elizabethtown
"These are hard times for dreamers." - Porn seller in Amelie
"Voici mon secret. Il est tres simple: on ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."
Translation: "Here is my secret. It is very simple: it is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye." - The Little Prince
