"Betrayals in war are childlike compared with our betrayals during peace. New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire."
A scene from the film "The English Patient" directed by Anthony Minghella.
The original lines extracted from Michael Ondaatje's novel: "There are betrayals in war that are childlike compared with our human betrayals during peace. The new lover enters the habit of the other. Things are smashed, revealed in new light. This is done with nervous and tender sentences, although the heart is an organ of fire.
A love story is not about those who lose their heart but about those who find that sullen inhabitant who, when it is stumbled upon, means the body can fool no one, can fool nothing-not the wisdom of sleep or the habit of social graces. It is a consuming of oneself and the past."

Una historia de amor no es acerca de aquellos que pierden su corazón, sino acerca de aquellos que encuentran a ese hosco habitante que cuando tropiezan con él, significa que el cuerpo no puede engañar a nadie, no engaña nada, ni la sabiduría del sueño o el hábito de las gracias sociales, es el consumo de uno mismo y del pasado.. te extraño, nos extraño

right choice for me, but I suppose I was just wanting to get to the Ralph Fiennes bits as he's SO, SO sexy in it. I'm so glad he was picked as Almasy.

When I read the book I found that I was trying to rush to get to the Almasy & Katherine parts, I was a bit disappointed that they were few and far between. Minghella made the

perhaps no choice commercially...but I'm always sad to see that this movie is a radical reduction of the novel...not a but film, though. but the novel, in my mind, is for Kip and Hana, the story of two youths and their recovery...
