Movie quotes

  • (..) important stuff I have to take care of. Very well. But I never let my aides leave on an empty stomach. You'll dine with me and then my driver will transport you to the airport for the Boston shuttle departing at hours. Meanwhile, unpack my bag. I'm gonna christen the latrine. (..)
