‍☆  I see you.‍

(眼相见，心相连。)

This is the most classic line. It appears several times, especially when the weepiest scene in the film: Neytiri saves Jake who is a human; Jake with a hand touching her face says "I see you"; then with the tears Neytiri is in response to "I see you".

That shows deeply love between two different races vividly in this sentence.

(一切都被颠倒了，仿佛那里才是真实的世界，这里才是梦。)

‍☆  Outcast, Betrayer, Alien, I was in the place the eye does not see.‍
