It's not the job of films to nurse people.

With what's happening in the chemistry of love, I don't want to be a nurse or a doctor, I just want to be an observer. I do believe that this kind of love exists and has nothing to do with taboo*. I don't think cinema is there to victimize or accuse people. Cinema has another aim.

from Spectacularly intimate: an interview with Claire Denis

*sobre o tema incesto

There will be no other reality tonight.

I want to tear myself from this place, from this reality rise up like a cloud and float away, melt into this humid summer night and dissolve somewhere far, over the hills. But I am here, my legs blocks of concrete, my lungs empty of air, my throat burning. There will be no floating away.

from The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

Really unreal world, will you perhaps do the breathing for me while I am away?*

* E. E. Cummings
