Quotes
-
Julie : I lay down on my mattress, then got up to undress. I lay down again, naked.
-
Julie : When I looked up suddenly... there were people walking in the street. I spilled all the sugar on the letters on the floor... and lay down again... and waited. I waited some more for it to pass or for something to happen - for me to believe in God or for you to send gloves for the cold.
-
Julie : I got up and looked at myself. I took off my sweater to get a better view. After that, I stripped and looked at myself.
-
Julie : I remained motionless, naked, so that other passers-by could look at me. Few people walked by, and then no one at all and night fell. I got dressed.
-
Julie : I think the empty room feels larger.
