View Quote Augusto Odone: It's a school, Lorenzo, like any other school.

Michaela Odone: That's right, and what happened to him?
Lorenzo Odone: He was in Rome and, I forgot.

Michaela Odone: I don't quite see the analogy.
Augusto Odone: All right, all right. ALD has many dimensions, right?
Michaela Odone: Yes
Augusto Odone: So, in order to understand it, we need to command genetics, biochemistry, microbiology, neurology, ology-ology-ology.
Michaela Odone: Augusto, we don't have time to go to medical school.
Augusto Odone: Michaela, the doctors are in the dark. They're groping in the dark. They've got Lorenzo on a turvy-topsy diet. And that bloody immunosuppression is brutal and useless. Michaela, we should not have consigned him blindly into their hands. He should not suffer by our ignorance. We take responsibility. So... we read a little. And we go out and inform ourselves. Hmm.
Michaela Odone: But... to miss time with him while he can still speak to us... How can…"
Augusto Odone: Yes, I know, I know. But he expects it of us.

Aunt Sponge: [laughs with the crowd] I think he's gone mad.
Aunt Spiker: This is all something he dreamed up.
James: Well, maybe it started that way, as a dream, but didn't everything? Those buildings, these lights, this whole city! Somebody had to dream about it first, and maybe that's what I did. I dreamed about coming here, but then I did it!
Aunt Spiker: The poor boy needs his medicine. Yes. So, we'll just take him...
