Natsu e no tobira

Marion:
Love is not logical.

[running to stop Jacques and Lindo's duel]

Marion:
I've had enough. Don't die, Jacques! Don't die, Lindo!

Marion:
[reading a letter] These are the same old lines: Mother has gone to Marseilles with her new husband. Good luck, Mama. [tears the letter and leaves his room]

Marion:
"Want to enjoy the festivities with us, Marion?"... Why don't you just say I'm a nuisance? [runs down the stairs]

Sara:
[to Marion] I'm holding you so the ice in you will melt from my warmth.

Marion:
Claude, I don't think I've fooled around with Sara. I fell in love and it's done me good. Is that a sin?

Claude:
[crying] I haven't got a choice. It's a dead end. There's nothing but blackness!

Claude:
I'm scared, Marion. Hold me...

[Marion comes across Claude, in a dark stable]

Marion:
What are you doing here? [His foot taps an empty bottle, which he examines]

Marion:
This is...!

Claude:
Keep quiet, Marion. I want to die.

Marion:
What?

Claude:
It's filthy, living like this.

Sara:
Don't you like kisses? A kiss won't eat you up. [kisses Marion]

Claude:
I love you, Marion! I LOVE YOU!

[after Claude's death]

Marion:
[grieving] Why, why didn't he let me hold him?

[as the duel begins]

Jacques:
Lindo, whichever one of us falls, let there be no hard feelings.

Lindo:
Yes, Jack, there will be no hard feelings if you die.

Jacques:
What?

Lindo:
If we both hit the heart, there won't be any feelings at all.

Lindo:
Just look at us: everybody else has gone home, free for the summer. And we're still stuck in our uniforms!

Claude:
Rule 11: Uniforms must be worn at all times, so it says.

Marion:
Rules, rules, rules! It's a rule to wake up in the morning, it's a rule to gargle after you brush your teeth...

Claude:
It's also a rule not to talk back to your teacher. They think they can keep students under control with their rules.

Narrator:
Summer was just around the corner. The boys were no longer children, but even though they spoke of high-sounding things they weren't adults yet. Unable to hold back their burning spirits, completely exposing their feelings to all... a boy's love. Appearing to act of their own desire, yet not knowing exactly what that desire was, the boys stretched out with souls that were unfulfilled. They lived the most splendid time of their life, They probably never imagined that the summer day would end, that a boy would have to become an adult...

Claude:
Do you know the myth of Leda and the Swan? Zeus turned himself into a swan, and seduced Leda. And she gave birth to two eggs.

Jacques:
So, Leda and the Swan had sex.

Claude:
I wonder, what sort of man becomes a swan?

Lindo:
Did you put this up hoping to be that sort of man?

Claude:
[looks at Marion] I feel as though I never will be...

Lindo:
Don't get so serious, sex is only a reproductive act. You don't need love to have sex, it's just a natural physical need.

Jacques:
It's no different from eating or drinking!

Marion:
Stop it! [walks out]

Jacques:
Damn, he always runs away when we talk about this...

Lindo:
He's slow in that aspect.

Claude:
But have any of you ever been with a woman?

[running in the rain]

Marion:
[thinking] Woman, man, love, sex... rules, rules, rules... love, man, love, woman... I don't want to love anyone! So please don't love me!

Sara:
[bathes Marion] You almost got pneumonia. Young boys are so reckless... but that's what's good about them.

[two seniors fight over Ledania, smashing everything in their path]

Marion:
It's irrational to step in an affair involving a girl... but it'll inconvenience us if the caf? gets torn apart.
