"Remember that this sort of Jazz came out of the the brothels... and the freedom inspired from..." "Parapsychology Conference" "This is a proven fact that can be easily demonstrated." "For instance: if we put a butterfly in a cage, within a few hours it will be able to gather around it many other butterflies which will quickly swarm in, in answer to its call even covering a distance of several miles." "This is telepathy." "I don't feel like it and I really need some rest I feel very tired." "So..." "Shouldn't we talk about that right away?" "Yes, I'd like this article to be published while I'm still in Italy." "Yes..." "I am alone." "Yes, I am a bit jumpy but don't worry." "We'll talk again tomorrow?" "Anyway, it means "alla salute!", "cheers", "à votre santé", "skol!"" "Listen, Carlo, when I was in America I met a lot of people like you." "The victim seems to be about 35-40 years old."

" I told you that I am a pianist." " Hmm, sure, sure..." "Yes, in short, that's your only job." "Why?" "You think playing an instrument isn't a job?" "What is it then, a joke?" "No, what are you saying?" "No, I would never say that." "In fact, in my family I have a cousin who plays the..." "What?" "The violin!" "Get lost!" "You can't come in here!" "Why not?" "A crime like this, the first thing you do is call the police!" "Get your hands off me!" "I told you, you can't come in here!" "We're conducting a very complex investigation here!" "Look who's here!" "Why must I go to the Police Station?" "I told you everything I know!" "I don't understand what else..." "It's for your statement." "It has to be officially typed, you know, bureaucracy!" "And also all your information:" "place and date of birth, passport, etc." "My head is splitting!" "And you, what the hell are you doing here at this hour?" "I'm on my way home... after four hours at the Police Station." "Oh yeah, right." "I forgot about the murder." "How did it go?" "What kind of question is that?" "How do you suppose it went?" "Come on, I'll walk you home." "No .... thank you." "I can make it by myself." "I can make it, I said!" "Oh, my poor head, my head..." "Tell me, how much did you drink?" "Who knows?" "Who can remember anything about this night?" "But I'm sure it must have been a lot." "No, no, I don't think so..." "If I remember well, it was... it was..." "some sort of composition of faces something very unusual." "Look, maybe you've seen something so important that you can't realize it." "But I..." "I'm just trying to understand, because..." "You know, sometimes, what you actually see and what you imagine get mixed up in your memory like a cocktail from which you can no longer distinguish one flavor from another."

"The Witness Declares:" ""I've seen the murderer."" "Look, you may not believe me, but I don't have a steady boyfriend right now." " Me neither." " Ah, I should hope not!" "I meant a girlfriend!" "Ah, that's why you're always so jumpy!" "Me jumpy?" "Oh please!" "I am not jumpy at all!" "Yeah right!" "And stop fidgeting!" "You're always scratching your hands are shaking."

"I know a way to stop your jumpiness..." "What?" "Here at the cemetery?" "Are you crazy?" "Anyway, I've other things on my mind, understand?" " Sure, you are scared witless!" " I am not scared!" "Right, you're almost pooping your pants!" "And it's all my fault!" "And I would like to see him, you know?" "I'm curious to see him face to face." "Forget it."

"And I told you... who wants to last?" "The liver is gone, and so are the intestines." "Come on, try to get up." "Put your head under a cold tap, it'll do you good."

"Something that recreates the same images that, in the past were the occasional frame of his provoking trauma." ""Ghosts of Today and Legends of the Modern Age"" "The House of the Screaming Child" "In a house near Rome, a strange thing happened." "One night, a hunter woke up before dawn and heard a child singing in a high shrill voice; soon after the voice stopped, and he heard shrieking screams and weeping."

"How much time will the police take to find me?" "Did you take a taxi to Amanda's?" "No, a rental car." "Why haven't you fixed this seat?" " I feel stupid sitting so low!" " I forgot, sorry!" "You'll see, they'll find you through your fingerprints." "I bet you left them all over the house, right?" "Right." "It would take another Florence flood to wipe them all!" "Let's say they find the body tomorrow morning they'll check the fingerprints with the usual suspects." "It'll take them some time to connect the two murders, but in the end they'll be after you." "So, you only have a couple of days, it's not much." "No, it's not." "But first of all, I must find this." "What a nice house, strange looking." "Do you know where it is?" "I wouldn't have to find it if I knew!" " So, what will you do?" " I'm not going to tell you." "You see, it seems as though everything here has ears."

"Just where do you women keep your brain?" "Let's stop dreaming: women have the brute force, the muscles you beat us at arm wrestling but I assure you, men have the monopoly on intelligence." " Have I made myself clear?" " Yes, very clear." "At last." "A little drink?" "I have Anisette, Sambuca, Caffé Borghetti..." "Don't you have anything less sickly?" "Whisky, Cognac?" "Yes, that's better." "We would be more comfortable at my place, don't you think?" "Maybe, but we're fine here." "Yes, but I think we would be better at my place." "Okay, let's go." "Hey, what do you think you are, idiot!" "I never met a more arrogant man than you!" "Women must have spoiled you rotten!" "Anyway, it's because I don't have a boyfriend right now!" "That's all!" "You've got such a big head." "Oh damn..." "What's wrong?" "Guess." "Where's my bottle?" "Spit out my bottle, for Christ's sake!" "Damn you..." "Inspector!" "Finally!" "I was looking for you for an hour!" "What do you want?" "Doesn't anybody check these bloody machines?" "They do, sir, but they steal the drinks!" "But of course, how strange!"

"I finished two crossword puzzles." "On the contrary, here, I have a tough puzzle to solve." "They killed Giordani not long ago." "The neighbors called the police because they heard screaming." " What did you do there?" " Nothing, just a scratch." "Seriously, I must admit, right now I don't know what's going on." "This son-of-a-bitch knows everything!" "He knows every move in advance." "Sorry, but I don't remember where you said I should flee to?" " In Lebanon." " Yeah, right." "In Lebanon." "But to go over there, I'd have to fly, and I am afraid of flying." "Oh come on, there's no reason to be nervous." "Once you're in the air just think that you'll land soon, one way or another" "Thank you." "How about we take the car and drive to Spain?" "We?"

"Sure, of course." "I suggested it, after all." "I don't know about you, but I'm about to have a nervous breakdown." "Wait, wait." "It's useless to stay here and talk about it." "Come on." "Let's not waste any time." "Now, you go back home to pack." "I'll be back in an hour!" "We'll have to rent a car, because mine isn't good for long trips." "I know." "I love you!" "And who's this?" "An old girlfriend..." "Her name is Carol." " From Rome?" " No..." "She's American, but now she lives in Paris." "You used to go for vamps, huh?" "You like super sexy women..."
