Notable Quotes

❝ The killer inside is like an injection, you can’t stop it and it spares no one, no one escapes the deadline.
❝ If I were God... and I could very well be, otherwise I don’t see who!
❝ Gaber, who was a Communist, recalls what Communism was, admitting, even with obedient and humble mea culpas and with his incomparable irony, what the former wanted to be and what 'communism' has transformed into error. Or horror.
