And my favourite quotation of the movie:<br /><br />"When Chekhov saw the long winter, he saw a winter bleak and dark and bereft of hope. Yet we know that winter is just another step in the cycle of life.

Now spring is coming but I don't feel the same joy as I usually do at the first signs of spring. It's like we need the harsh winter to fully appreciate the springtime. :)KatyLambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236075692419975639noreply@blogger.com
