Vicky: So, tell me, why won’t your father publish his poems?
Juan Antonio: Well, because he hates the world, and that’s his way of getting back at them -- to create beautiful works and then to deny them to the public, which I think, it’s...
Vicky: My God. Well, what makes him so...angry toward the human race?
Juan Antonio: Because after thousands of years of civilization...they still haven’t learned to love.

quote by Woody Allen - in "Vicky, Christina, Barcelona"
