QOtD

"America is really the property of the world, and not only of the Americans, who, among other things, have the habit of diluting the wine of their mythical ideas with the water of the American Way of Life. America was something dreamt up by philosophers, vagabonds and the wretched of the earth before it was discovered by Spanish ships and populated by colonists from all over the world. The Americans have only rented it temporarily. If they don't behave well, if their mythical level is lowered, if their movies don't work anymore and their history takes on an ordinary day-to-day quality, then we can always evict them. Or discover another America."

-- Sergio Leone, June 1984
