I Just Dont Know What Im Supposed To Be. (Lost In Translation, 2003)

“I just don’t know what I’m supposed to be”. (Lost in Translation, 2003) 

Can we talk about the scene in Fellowship of the Ring where Arwen first appears for a second?

Aragorn goes from “oh shit” to “really, Arwen?” in like three seconds. Like he’s scared one moment, and then he’s just fondly annoyed.

I appreciate this scene for so many reasons.

“You attend the funeral. You grieve. Then you continue with your life. And at times the fact of her absence will hit you like a blow to the chest, and you will weep. But this will happen less and less as time goes on. She is dead. You are alive. So live.”

— Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections

“I loved to sleep with the window open. Rainy nights were the best of all: I would open the window and put my head on the pillow and close my eyes and feel the wind on my face and listen to the trees sway and creak.”

— Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

“And you — you’re gonna go choke on your average fucking mediocre life!”

— Angelina Jolie, from Girl, Interrupted (1999)
