Que el cielo y tu madre cuiden de tí

Energy moves in waves. Waves move in patterns. Patterns move in rhythms. A human being is just that… energy, waves, patterns, rhythms. Nothing more. Nothing less. A dance! Gabrielle Roth

I didn't promise anybody anything. What do I know about Hollywood, anyway? Just a dream I got from sitting through too many double features. So why did you leave the swamp in the first place? 'Cause some agent fella said I had talent. He probably says that to everybody. On the other hand, if you hadn't left the swamp, you'd be feeling pretty miserable anyhow. Yeah. But then it would just be me feeling miserable. Now I got a lady pig, and a bear, and a chicken, a dog, a thing, whatever Gonzo is. He's a little like a turkey. Mmm, yeah. A little like a turkey, but not much. No I guess not. Anyhow, I brought them all out here to the middle of nowhere, and it's all my fault. Still, whether you promised them something or not, you gotta remember they wanted to come. But that's because they believed in me. No, they believed in the dream. Well, so do I, but... You do? Yeah, of course I do. Well then?
