“I think we’re always responsible for our actions. We’re free. I raise my hand –
I’m responsible. I turn my head to the right – I’m responsible. I’m unhappy –
I’m responsible. I smoke a cigarette – I’m responsible. I shut my eyes –
I’m responsible. I forget that I’m responsible, but I am. I told you escape is a pipe dream. After all, everything is beautiful. You only have to take an interest in things, see their beauty. It’s true. After all, things are just what they are. A face is a face. Plates are plates. Men are men. And life…is life.”

- Nana Kleinfrankenheim; played by Anna Karina in “Vivre sa vie” (1962), directed by Jean-Luc Godard.

"The way we imagine ourselves to appear to another person is an essential element in our conception of ourselves. In other words, I am not what I think I am, and I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am."
- R. Bierstedt
