Quotes 

• Gianni Perego : Our generation is really disgusting.

  Antonio : Why?

  Gianni Perego : What? Well, look at Nicola, for example.

  Antonio : What did Nicola do?

  Gianni Perego : Yeah, what did Nicola do? He abandoned his family, his career, and to top it all off he ended scratching out movie reviews signing them "Vice".

  Antonio : Oh, he's vice? Well then, you write for a lot of newspapers.

  Gianni Perego : And all of this for what? For a brighter future.

  Antonio : And so?

  Gianni Perego : The future passed us by without us even realizing it.

  Nicola Palumbo : What? Who says? Throwing away your life means to make the best use of it. Or do you like this one better? Living as you please is cheap because you pay for it with something that doesn't exist: happiness.

• Gianni Perego : I didn't come, do you understand?

  Luciana Zanon : Why did you have to? We had a fight

  Gianni Perego : But I loved you

  Luciana Zanon : Oh, and I thought you did not

  Gianni Perego : How not? In all these years I have done nothing but think of you, always, Luciana

  Luciana Zanon : But not me. Sorry Gianni, 10 years ago I married Antonio, I had two children, then the house, the job, the money that was never enough, you too have had these problems, right?

  Gianni Perego : Yes, of course, but I thought that a great love was a great love

  Luciana Zanon : Yes, sure. But then they were things in the past

• Elide Catenacci : Am I important to you, now?

  Gianni Perego : Important... Why...? Important because you are dead? I don't know. I don't think... No. No.

  Elide Catenacci : Damn! Why not?

  Gianni Perego : Elide, because when someone isn't important during her life, she's not even important as a deceased!
