Movie quotes

  • (..) You're looking at me. No, not by me, and not by the dying or the delirious. Have you ever been seen... like you were a man? In a diner once, a blind woman turned to me all of a sudden... and asked me to pass her the mustard. - But she was blind. - But she knew I was there. (..)
