LIFE IS LIKE A PLAY, BUT WITHOUT REHEARSALS. SO SING, CRY, DANCE, LAUGH AND LIVE BEFORE THE CURTAIN CLOSES AND THE PLAY ENDS WITHOUT APPLAUSE. ———————————– IT IS NOT THE REALITY THAT COUNTS IN A FILM, BUT WHAT IMAGINATION CAN DO WITH IT. ———————————– A MESSAGE AWAITS ME WHEN I ARRIVE IN ROME, ANNOUNCING THE POSSIBILITY OF AN INTERVIEW WITH MUSSOLINI. IT FINALLY DOESN’T HAPPEN, BECAUSE I ONLY SPEND TWO DAYS IN THE CAPITAL, TOO SHORT A TIME FOR IL DUCE TO GIVE ME HIS PRECIOUS TIME.
