Movie quotes

  • (..) Here I Stand And... Here I'll stay. Let the storm rage on... My power flurries through the air into the ground. My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around. And one thought crystallizes like An icy blast... I'm never going back, The Past is in the Past! Let it go! Let it go! (..)
