Summary

This quote is a metaphorical comparison between a movie camera and having a crush. It suggests that when a camera rolls, it is capturing every moment, just as someone you have a crush on might observe you from a distance. The quote implies that in both situations, one tries to ignore the camera or the crush, pretending they are not present. It highlights the idea that even though there may be a lens capturing our actions, sometimes we choose to be oblivious to its presence.
