“Every city has a sex and an age which have nothing to do with demography. Rome is feminine. So is Odessa. London is a teenager, an urchin, and, in this, hasn’t changed since the time of Dickens. Paris, I believe, is a man in his twenties in love with an older woman.”

Florent Igla - The Path of Beauty, video for Musée du Louvre & Nintendo

“A women walks in the Musée du Louvre, alone.
The museum is completely empty.
We follow this young woman in her dreamlike journey through the different rooms of the museum, between amazement and beauty, art and poetry.”

See the video here. Music: Sigur Rós - Suð Í Eyrum

“It seems nothing is private anymore. That must particularly fascinate you, because you have such a sense of mystery about you. I find it so amazing that you’ve managed to keep your privacy and keep your mystique. And I think that’s one of the things that has attracted such curiosity about you, because it’s the antithesis of everybody else.”
Lee Radziwill on Sofia Coppola

“Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.”

““Je t’aime trop pour te laisser croire que je pourrais me passer de toi. Que tu me trompes, je m’en fous. Tant que tu as la sincérité de me le dire. Que tu me caches, je m’en fous, tant que tu viens me retrouver même pour une minute, même pour une seconde. La patience me va, et en t’attendant c’est tout ton corps que je récite par coeur, tes bras si doux, tes lèvres, l’odeur de tes cheveux. Et tes genoux. Dire que même de tes genoux, je suis amoureuse.””

- La Belle Personne
