The Before Trilogy, directed by Richard Linklater and starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, is a beloved romantic film series that spans three movies: Before Sunrise (1995), Before Sunset (2004), and Before Midnight (2013).

• "When you talked earlier about after a few years how a couple would begin to hate each other by anticipating their reactions or getting tired of their mannerisms-I think it would be the opposite for me. I think I can really fall in love when I know everything about someone-the way he's going to part his hair, which shirt he's going to wear that day, knowing the exact story he'd tell in a given situation.

• “If there’s any kind of magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something." - Celine, Before Sunrise

• "I see it in the people that do the real work, and what's sad in a way is that the people that are the most giving, hardworking, and capable of making this world better, usually don't have the ego and ambition to be a leader." - Celine, Before Sunset

• "They enjoy the goal but not the process. But the reality of it is that the true work of improving things is in the little achievements of the day." - Celine, Before Sunset
