I heart Paris

公告

Hello and welcome to my blog! About myself:

I am an artiste because

\'The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do!\'-Anon-

I dare because

\"I say ask for all, but be prepared to get nothing.\"- from the play, Summer and Smoke-

Have hope because

\"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden\".

-Matthew 5:14-

Paris is always a good idea - The movie "Sabrina"

In the movies Paris is designed as a backdrop for only three things—love, fashion shows, and revolution. - Jeanine Basinger

When Paris sneezes, all Europe catches a cold - Prince Metternic

I love Paris in the summer, when it sizzles. How can one not love Paris? This is the first trip back to Europe since my graduation from Cambridge back in 2006. It’s nostalgic. I was there for work with my housemate, Carrie but in Paris can it be truly called ‘work’? Europe is as beautiful as I remember. The gorgeous sunshine, the Victorian buildings, the smell of freshly brewed coffee, the never-ending Champ Elysees.. what’s not to love about Paris?

Carrie Bradshaw said in Paris,

‘I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love’.

One can understand why. This city is the backdrop to some of the greatest love stories ever told. There is something magical about this place. Just like how I felt a few years ago, I stepped into a different world the moment I touched Paris.

The evidence lies with the numerous quotes by people who have been mesmorised by the very same city over time immemorial. It is indeed the only city in the world where you can step out of a railway station—the Gare D’Orsay—and see, simultaneously, the chief enchantments: the Seine with its bridges and bookstalls, the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Tuileries Gardens, the Place de la Concord and, the beginning of the Champs Elysees. I heart Paris, today, and forever more.

Good Americans, when they die, go to Paris. - Thomas Appleton

In Paris, everybody wants to be an actor; nobody is content to be a spectator. - Jean Cocteau

If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast. - - Ernest Hemingway
