Young journalist

Everything you say is contradictory. You can't have been in one place and another at the same time. Of all those lives, which one is the right one?

Nemo aged 118

Each of these lives is the right one! Every path is the right path. Everything could have been anything else and it would have just as much meaning.

Nemo Nobody

Before, he was unable to make a choice because he didn't know what would happen. Now that he knows what will happen, he is unable to make a choice.

I always liked fish. I never thought that one day they would like me too. [narrating while in his car underwater]

Nemo Nobody

I can remember a long time ago. Long before my birth. I was waiting with those who were not yet born. When we're not born yet, we know everything. Everything that will happen. When it's your turn, the Angels of Oblivion place a finger on your mouth. "Shh..." It leaves a mark on the upper lip. It means that you have forgotten everything. But the angels missed me.

Nemo Nobody

If you mix the mashed potatoes and sauce, you can't separate them later. It's forever. The smoke comes out of Daddy's cigarette, but it never goes back in. We cannot go back. That's why it's hard to choose. You have to make the right choice. As long as you don't choose, everything remains possible.

Nemo Nobody

Sometimes people call me Mr. Craft. C-R-A-F-T. Can't Remember A **** Thing.

Nemo Nobody

Urgh, you're still here? Did I fall asleep? Sometimes I don't sleep so I think... I think about how it was... and all I have left. What do you see when you look at me? A grumpy old man who never answers questions? Who mixes everything up? Who's kept busy by getting his meals? That's not me. Me... I wear shorts. I'm nine years old. I can run faster than the train. I can't feel my aching back anymore. I'm fifteen. I'm fifteen and I'm in love.

Nemo Nobody

You have to make the right choice. As long as you don't choose, everything remains possible.
