I didn’t find true love, but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

When you meet an empty person, you will think that everyone will have this experience in their life. Standing at a crossroad, you must choose to go left or go. Go right. You can't be a coward.

When I was very young, I tried to find ladybugs. Later fell asleep on the grass. When I woke up, I found that my whole body was covered with ladybirds.

No matter what happened, it was the most important thing to keep your innocence forever.
Regret is just a waste of time, don't let the troubles of the past torture your present.

There is a very steep section of the Alps. They built railways on it to connect Vienna and Venice. These railways were built before the arrival of the train. They built it because they knew the train would come one day.

Looking back on the way before. Any different choice, I will not be in this place now, I will be different from now.

What is the meaning of the four walls? It is what is contained in the wall. The house protects the dreamer inside.

There is no doubt that good things will always come. And when it comes late, it is also a surprise.

The way to stay young is to have childish curiosity at all times.

    In the name of the "Mediterranean scenery", the scenery film of Dali is still a little Hollywood love story, and Fellini is also brought out to help out. There are a lot of unnatural changes in mood and plot, and there are very few highlights except for the good scenery.

    Those who should come will definitely come, just like that small village in the Alps, the tracks were laid before the train could be passed, because they believed that one day the train would come. The Tuscan countryside, Rome, the Almafi coast-how can you not fall in love with Italy?

Under the Tuscan Sun quotes

  • Frances: [in voiceover] Every day I watch for the old man with the flowers, and I wonder, was he born here? Did he love someone here? Did he lose someone here? He doesn't seem as curious about me, but that's all right. These days I'm something of a loner myself.

  • Frances: Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you. Like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly. You shouldn't have to wake up day after day after that, trying to understand how in the world you didn't know. The light just never went on, you know. I must have known, of course, but I was too scared to see the truth. Then fear just makes you so stupid.

    Martini: No, it's not stupid, Signora Mayes. L'amore e cieco.

    Frances: Oh, love is blind. Yeah, we have that saying too.

    Martini: Everybody has that saying because it's true everywhere.
