Before Sunrise - Another Type of Fight

Celine: But you know what? I don't think it really matters what generation your are born into. Look at my parents. They were these angry, young May'68 people revolting against everything. The government, their conservative Catholic background. Then I was born not long after and then my father went on to became this successful architect and we begin to travel all around the world were he build bridges and towers and stuff. I mean, I really can't complain about anything. They loved me more than anything in the world and I've been raised with all the freedom they fought for. And yet for me now, it's another type of fight. We still have to deal with the same old shit, but we can't really know who, or what, the enemy is.

Jesse: I don't know if there really is an enemy. Everybody's parents fucked them up. Rich kid's parents gave them too much. Pour kid's, not enough. Too much attention, not enough attention. They either left them or stuck around and taught them the wrong things.

Before Sunrise - Everything We Do

Celine: Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?

Before Sunrise - Being with You

Jesse: I know what you mean about wishing somebody wasn't there. It's just, usually, it's myself that I wish I could get away from. Seriously, think about this. I have never been anywhere that I haven't been. I've never had a kiss when I wasn't one of the kissers. You know, I've never gone to the movies when I wasn't in the audience. I've never been out bowling if I wasn't there making some stupid jocking. That's why so many people hate themselves. Seriously. It's just they are sick of being around themselves. Let's say that you and I were together all the time. You'd start to hate a lot of my mannerism. The way every time that we would have people over I'd be insecure and I'd get a little too drunk. Or the way I tell the same stupid pseudo-intellectual story again and again. You see, I've heard all those stories so, of course, I'm sick of myself. But being with you it's made me feel like I was somebody else. I mean, the only way to lose yourself like that is dancing or alcohol or drugs, or stuff like that.

Celine: Fucking?

Jesse: That's one way.

Suggestions for changes in the use of language:

No (do not do -1) => (do 1)
But (1 but 2) => And (1 and 2)
But (1 but -2) => (-2 but 1)
Try (will try to do) => (will do)
Must, have to, need => want, choose, decide to
I can't => I couldn't
I will (change) => I am (changing)
If I do => When I do

Be aware of our limitations and think positive.

Trust

There are times when the best action is one's own decision, despite all opinions in contrary.

After all, there is a personal feeling in every choice impossible to be entirely captured by any advice.
