"I am an ancient man, who has read the classics, who has harvested grapes in the vineyard, who has contemplated the rising or setting sun upon the fields. (…)

I therefore do not know what to make of a world created, with violence, by the necessity of production and consumption.

I detest everything about it: the haste, the noise, the vulgarity, the social climbing. (…)

I am a man who prefers to lose rather than win through unfair and ruthless means.

And the beauty is that I have the audacity to defend such a flaw, to consider it almost a virtue."

~ Pier Paolo Pasolini ~
