“Town labyrinths, again. There's Pisa, I don't know what is labyrinthine about it. Then suddenly, this is like when you are queuing at the airport. At some moment I start to call just about everything a labyrinth.”

“Again processions and processions ... I don't know why processions all of a sudden become labyrinthic. And that's how you walk in an underground train station.”
