About This Quote

Mathilde and Lotto held hands in the taxi going to brunch, communicating, not speaking. The idea that you are not supposed to talk to someone if they are holding your hand is pure nonsense. Not that you are supposed to be holding the same person’s hand throughout the entire conversation, but if you are holding hands it means you are together. Holding hands means that you are comfortable with each other.

The phrase “Mathilde and Lotto held hands in the taxi going to brunch, communicating…” is about how two people can communicate without talking. You can talk about anything with someone you hold hands with.
