I had always heard your entire life flashes in front of your eyes the second before you die. First of all, that one second isn't a second at all, it stretches on forever, like an ocean of time... For me, it was lying on my back at Boy Scout camp, watching falling stars... And yellow leaves, from the maple trees, that lined my street... Or my grandmother's hands, and the way her skin seemed like paper... And the first time I saw my cousin Tony's brand new Firebird... And Janie... And Janie... And... Carolyn. I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me... but it's hard to stay mad, when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst... And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life... You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure. But don't worry... you will someday.
Sin lugar a dudas es una de mis películas favoritas. Sin mencionar que es protagonizada por uno de mis actores favoritos. La he visto por lo menos quince veces. Y aún me encanta. Dejo aquí algunos apartes realmente increíbles de una cinta que alcanza a estremecer los sentidos antes de permitir que cerremos los ojos para luego, más tarde, olvidarla. Pertenece al grupo de aquellas historias que dejan huella en nuestra mente porque reflejan mucho de nosotros mismos.
It's a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself.
(Es genial comprobar que todavía tienes la capacidad de sorprenderte a ti mismo.)
When you see something like that, it's like God's looking right at you, just for a second, and if you're careful you can look right back.
(Cuando ves algo así, es como si Dios te mirara a los ojos por un instante y si estás atento, puedes devolverle la mirada.)

A veces hay tantísima belleza en el mundo que siento que no lo aguanto.
