Alphaville, une étrange aventure de Lemmy Caution

One day, a little man went into a cafe in the North zone. He said, "I'd like a nice hot and sweet coffee." Then he added, "But I'm not paying because I'm not afraid of anyone." He drank his coffee. He left. He drank his coffee and he left without paying. The owner didn't say anything because he didn't want any trouble. But the man kept coming back, so the owner said, "I've had it!" "I'll get one of the big guys to beat him up if he does this again!" Sure enough, the fourth time the little man came back and said: "I'd like a nice hot and sweet coffee." The big guy said, "So, you're not afraid of anyone?" "No," said the little man. "Me neither," said the big guy. "So," said the little man, "Two nice hot and sweet coffees."

You never understand anything and in the end, it kills you.

— Got a light?
— I came 6,000 miles to give it to you.

We see a truth that you no longer see. A truth that says the essence of man is love and faith, courage and tenderness, generosity and sacrifice. Everything else is an obstacle put up by your blind progress and ignorance!

Once we know the number one we think we know the number two because one plus one equals two. We forget that first we must know the meaning of plus.

Yes, but all we have in life is the present. No-one has lived in the past and no-one will live in the future.

Sometimes reality can be too complex to be conveyed by the spoken word. Legend remoulds it into a form that can be spread all across the world.
