...gridando: Dottore, Dottore Trelawney!
Mi prenda con se'! Non puo' lasciarmi qui dottore !
Ma gia'  le navi stavano scomparendo all'orizzonte
E io rimasi qui,
in questo mondo
pieno di responsabilita'  e di fuochi fatui.


(from "Il Visconte Dimezzato", Italo Calvino, 1951)

"...I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die"


(from "Blade Runner", 1982)
