Here comes Oscar Wilde

"Men become old, but they never become good."-- “Lady Windermere's Fan”

"Men know life too early. Women know life too late. That is the difference between men and women."-- “A Woman of No Importance”"

"Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood."-- “The Sphinx Without a Secret”
（Les femmes sont faites pour être aimées, pas pour être comprises.）

"One should always be in love. That is the reason one should never marry."-- “A Woman of No Importance” （On devrait toujours être amoureux. C'est est la raison pour laquelle on ne devrait jamais se marier.）

"To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance."-- “An Ideal Husband”

"A man can be happy with any woman as long as he does not love her."-- “The Picture of Dorian Gray”

"Young men want to be faithful and are not; old men want to be faithless and cannot."-- “The Picture of Dorian Gray”(Les jeunes veulent être fidèles et ne le sont pas ; les vieux veulent être infidèles et ne le peuvent pas.)

"Men marry because they are tired; women because they are curious. Both are disappointed."-- "A Woman of No Importance" (Les hommes se marient par fatigue, les femmes par curiosité: tous sont déçus.)

"The happiness of a married man...depends on the people he has not married." -- "A Woman of No Importance" (Le bonheur d'un homme est fonction des femmes qu'il n'a pas épousées.)

"When one is in love one begins by deceiving oneself. And one ends by deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance." -- "A Woman of No Importance" (Quand on est amoureux, on commence par se décevoir soi-même et on finit par décevoir les autres. C'est ce que les gens appellent l'amour romantique.)

"If a woman wants to hold a man, she has merely to appeal to the worst in him." -- "Lady Windermere's Fan"

Gustav Klimt - The Fulfillment

喜歡Gustav Klimt，因爲喜歡醉生夢死的一齊，包括梵高、夢露、郁達夫、Nirvana的Kurt Cobain、吸血僵屍，因爲醉生夢死，都不得好死！

Klimt的 The Kiss是我最喜歡的畫，家裏有它的大小拼圖、首飾盒、火柴盒，我把它跟Love Song for A Vampire放在一起，竟然有點絕配的感覺。

這幅The Fulfillment跟The Kiss好像一樣，都描繪擁抱的戀人，其實不一樣，前者展現的是女人支持男人，男人需要女人，多於女人需要男人，一個女人得到自己所愛男人的愛，就是fulfillment；後者是男人擁抱脆弱無力的女人，女人需要男人，多於男人需要女人，相信女人還是覺得高興的，只是不知道，男人會在自己身邊多久。

要多久才會「精誠所至，金石為開」？

My Immortal

My Immortal
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tLhG3nsJBI

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still haveAll of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus]

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

[Chorus]

Gustav Klimt - The Kiss (1908) vs Love Song for a Vampire by Annie Lennox
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhG8zC4npsE

Come into these arms again
And lay your body down
The rhythm of this trembling heart
Is beating like a drum
It beats for you
It bleeds for you
It knows not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs

Once I had the rarest rose
That ever deigned to bloom
Cruel winter chilled the bud
And stole my flower too soon
Oh loneliness, Oh hopelessness
To search the ends of time
For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine

Love oh love oh love oh love...
Still falls the rain
Love oh love oh love oh love...
Still falls the night
Love oh love oh love oh love...
Be mine forever
Love oh love oh love oh love...

Let me be the only one
To keep you from the cold
Now the floor of heaven's laid
With stars of brightest gold
They shine for you, they shine for you
They burn for all to see
Come into these arms again
And set this spirit free

(set it free set it free)

Sex and the City - Carrie's Quotes




Carrie: I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love. And I don't think that love is here in this expensive suite in this lovely hotel in Paris.

*****

Carrie: Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.

*****

Carrie: Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they're supposed to run wild until they find someone -- just as wild -- to run with.

*****

Carrie: Can you get to your future if your past is present?

*****

Carrie: I had often fantasized about running into my ex and his wife. But in those fantasies, I was running over them with a truck.

*****

Carrie: You shouldn't have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it.

*****

Carrie: I'm not home, but my shoes are. Leave them a message.

喜歡「色慾都市」，因爲對白有趣，因爲自己跟Carrie一樣開心與不開心都買鞋，還有我們對愛情的價值觀相同：
I love you because you are you; not because what you used to be or what you can become.

我愛您是因爲您是您，不是因爲您從前曾經怎樣，或將來變成怎樣。

Adam: Come on, give me a little BJ, up and down a couple times, you're done, it's easy!Samantha: Easy? You men have no idea what we're dealing with down there.

Honey, they don't call it a job for nothin'!

*****
