Tristan and Isolde

Ang CUTE nung movie! So touching and at the same time, very, very mushy! Here are some quotes from the movie..

*Bragnae: Your mother loved you so much Isolde.
Isolde: Why did she die Bragnae? Why?
Bragnae: It was an ill fever that took her. Fever.
Isolde: No. It was her heart.

*Tristan: What's your name?
Isolde: Oh, I think it's better if we don't bother with names.
Tristan: How can I thank you if i don't know your name?
Isolde: You just did. If you insist... my name is Bragnae. I'm a lady in waiting at the court. My parents are dead. My mother, she is the source of kindness you find so puzzling. My father would have left you where you fell.
Tristan: Tristan of Aragon.
Isolde: Well Tristan of Aragon, i'd guess about you too, but I think i've already seen everything. :)

*Isolde: There she who bore you brought you forth. Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death,
Tristan: Ridiculous.
Isolde: I happen to believe what that says. Don't you think there is more to life?
Tristan: Than what?
Isolde: Something more than duty and death! HWy are we capable of feelings if not ot have them? Why long frot hings if they are not meant to be ours? well don't listen to me. You're so sure of things. You're certainty, it's like armour. I wish I had that.

*Tristan: Come with me. Come with me!
Isolde: i can't.
Tristan: Why not? Please!
Isolde: Tristan, we've both known this can't be. We've known this from the start. That doesn't mean it isn't true. It is. It just cannot be. I want to know that you are alive somewhere thinking of me from time to time. I want to know that there is more to life.. and i can't know that if they kill you. Please?

*Isolde: "My face in thine eyes, thine in mine appears,
And true plain hearts do in the faces rest;
Whatever dies, was not mixed equally;
If our two loves be one, or thou and i.
Love so alike, that none can slacken, none can die."

*Isolde: If things were different. If we lived in a place without duty... would you be with me?
Tristan: That place does not exist.
Isolde: I'll pretend it's you.

*Tristan: I live in torture thinking of these moments. With every look he gives you i get sicker and sicker. There is a burning in me, i feel on fire and guilt and i can't get rid of either. Does it make you happy to know that?

*Marke: Isolde. I was trying to explain to Tristan the importance of loving. It seems he mgiht live without it.
Isolde: Why?
Tristan: There are other things to live for. Duty. Honour.
Isolde:
But they are not life Tristan. They are the shells of life. And empty ones and in the end all they hold is days and days without love. Love is made by God. Ignore it and you can suffer as you cannot imagine.

*Isolde: I miss Ireland
Tristan: Isolde, this must end.
Isolde: That's like asking me to stop breathing.

*Isolde: Why does loving you feel so wrong?
