A scene from Life Is Beautiful 1997
Guido

(learning how to be a waiter)

How far do I bow? I suppose I can even go 180 degrees.

Eliseo

Think of a sunflower, they bow to the sun. But if you see some that are bowed too far down, it means they're dead. You're here serving, you're not a servant. Serving is the supreme art. God is the first of servants. God serves men, but he's not a servant to men.
