Famous Renee Carlino Quotes

“New York has an energy that takes root inside of you. Even a transplant like me gets to know the different boroughs, like they're living, breathing organisms. There's nowhere else like it. The city becomes a character in your life, a love you can't take out of you. The mysteriously human element about this place can make you fall in love and break your heart at the same time.”

“It’s the only way to know you’re really in love, when you ask the question would it be harder to watch him die, or to know he’ll watch me die? Is there more mercy in being the one who does the watching or in being the one who does the dying? It’s when you realize what mercy-killing actually means, it’s when you actually care to the point of tormenting worry. It’s not roses and white horses, it’s fucking brutal and it can send a person running for the hills. To love is brave.”

“„Ne možete ponoviti trenutak kad ste nekome prvi put obećali ljubav ili kad ste prvi put osjetili da vas netko voli. Ne možete ponovno proživjeti taj osjećaj straha, divljenja, nesigurnosti, strasti i želje jer se nikad ne dogodi dvaput. Tražite ga ponovno do kraja života, ali nikad se ne ponovi. To ne znači da ne možete voljeti drugu osobu ili nastaviti sa životom; samo znači da se jedan spontani trenutak, sekunda u kojoj ste se odlučili na to, kad vam je srce lupalo, a glava bila prepuna pitanja Što ako? – taj trenutak – neće više nikada dogoditi na isti način. Nikada neće biti intenzivan kao prvi put.”
