"Sit in one place and hope she'll show up, or move around from place to place?" "If two people are meant for each other, wouldn't they eventually find each other anyway?" "What do you think, Georg?" "Is everything that happens part of a larger plan?" "Or simply a succession of random occurrences?" "Hi." "Hi." "I've been looking for you." "I asked you to wait." "All fairy tales have rules." "Which rules applied to this fairy tale?" "What were those oranges for?" "What did you think?" "I thought maybe you had a vitamin deficiency." "I was going to paint them." "Why not just buy one, and paint it several times?" "No two oranges are alike." "That's why you are here now." "Did you come all the way here just to meet some Woman?" "Some random woman?" "Exactly."

"What did you say about eternity?" "That the moment is now?" "Did you see that?" "The shooting star?" "That means we can make a wish" "It can also mean that someone's going to die." "Imagine how brief a human life is, Georg." "It takes billions of years to create a man." "But only a matter of seconds to die" "I LOVE YOU" "I love you" "Mom" "Stella." "The sky is clearing." "Do you want to come out?" "Look!" "It's freezing out here." "Think we'll see that comet?" "With a little bit of luck." "Are you the lucky type?" "Maybe?" "How about your dad?" "Did he get lucky with the Orange Girl?" "Did they end up together?" "The Orange Girl was, or is.." "She turned out to be my mother." "Now." "Now I know why sne never found another man." "True love lasts forever." "Noth ng asts forever" "Wow" "Awesome" "Let me see." "Move!" "You have to let me see." "Holy shit" "Wow" "Did you make a wish?" "Mhm." "But it's a secret." "How about you?"

"Imagine that you could choose if you wanted to be born." "But you would know." "that your life would only last a few short moments." "And the better it would be to live, the worse it would be to die." "What would you choose?" "Hi." "Are you home already?" "I was expecting you tomorrow." "This is Jørgen." "Veronika has told me all about you," "Strange that I haven't heard shit about you." "Georg." "Shut up." "Shit!" "Georg!" "Georg" "Open the door!" "How long have you known him?" "A while." "That letter was one long declaration of love for you." "Orange Girl, my ass." "No matter what you mignt think ." "I loved your father." "He was the love of my life The love of your life?" "What about that other jerk?" "The love of your life, number two?" "How many do you intend to have?" "Dad wrote about how he did everything to find you." "You won't find love like that again, mom." "Ever." "No, Georg" "But is there only one star in the universe?" "I didn't choose someone else over Jan Olav." "He died from me too." "Hi." "Hi." "Here." "You probably want to read that."
