Quotes of better days

The only thing worse than being incompetent,
or being unkind or being evil, is being indecisive.

Thoroughbreds (2017)

Il Postino (1994)

It’s like, when you don’t know someone, they’re more interesting.
They can be anything you want them to be.

Sing Street (2016)

We crave the mistery
because there is none left.

Under the Silver Lake (2018)

This must be the station they told me about, with the funny name.
Not the station where the train stopped, but the station where the station stopped.

Der Himmel über Berlin (1987)
