Relationships
I’m not fascinated by people who smile all the time. What I find interesting is the way people look when they are lost in thought, when their face becomes angry or serious, when they bite their lip, the way they glance, the way they look down when they walk, when they are alone and smoking a cigarette, when they smirk, the way they half smile, the way they try and hold back tears, the way when their face says they want to say something but can’t, the way they look at someone they want or love… I love the way people look when they do these things. It’s… beautiful.— Clemence Poesy

A lot has been said about interesting. Not much of it is this clear. Clemence Poesy put it in a way that is actually worth keeping.
Come back to this one in a few months. A good quote changes meaning as you change. This one has that quality.
Words like these do their best work when you stop rushing and let them sit for a minute.
