Previn

"This then is the story of Irma la Douce. A story about passion, bloodshed, desire and... death – everything in fact that makes life worth living."

- "Irma la Douce" (Billy Wilder, 1963)

Je suis malade

"La vie m'est insupportable... Pardonnez-moi."

Inner party

Totò

Ver una peli estrenada originalmente hace 26 años, pero reestrenada, remasterizada y restaurada ahora, en 2014 d.C. en un cine casi de lujo, con asientos dignos del jet privado de un jeque de Qatar, y sin más compañía que un pedazo de bol de palomitas dulces (de las buenas, con caramelo) y un bichito peludo...

Eso, muy señores míos, no tiene precio.

Et le renard

"Si tu viens, par exemple, à quatre heures de l'après-midi,
dès trois heures je commencerai d'être heureux."

- "Le Petit Prince", Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Eumolpus

"My friend, companion of my final moments here... You'll be able to say "I knew Eumolpus, the poet".

What can I say? If I were as rich as Trimalchio, I'd leave you some land or a ship, but I can only leave you what I had myself:

I leave you poetry, I leave you the seasons, especially spring and summer... I leave you the wind, the sun, I leave you the sea, the good sea...  The earth that is good, too. The mountains, streams, and rivers and the big clouds that move by solemn and light. You'll look at them and maybe remember our brief friendship. And I leave you the trees and their agile inhabitants. Love, tears, joy, stars, Encolpius. I leave you sounds, songs, noises, the voice of man, which is the most harmonious of music. I... leave you."

- "Fellini Satyricon" (Federico Fellini, 1969)

Tea won't let you down (but it might deplete your iron absorption)

“We had a kettle; we let it leak;
Our not repairing made it worse.
We haven’t had any tea for a week…
The bottom is out of the Universe.”

- Rudyard Kipling

Space is the place

"Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."

- Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
