Notable Quotes

❝ "Never will another come so friendly with the stars, dice, and whores. The gamblers and the black women of Bahia are in mourning. A minute of silence at all the roulettes, flags at half-mast on the roofs of our brothels, a desperate sob of shocked asses." OF SHOCKED ASSES!, can you believe it?!?
