Quotes
-
Jéricho : I may be drunk, but I've still got principles.
-
Jéricho : Remember, they call me the Tightwad, the Niggard, the Rat, 'cause I scavenge like a rat.
-
Jéricho : They also call me The Spark, The Stoker, The Dove-keeper, because I like to keep turtledoves together.
-
Jéricho : What's Baptiste got against me?
Nathalie : Nothing. Only that you don't mind your own business.
Jéricho : Is it his business what is or isn't mine? I've always lived all alone. So I take an interest in others. Always alone. That's not living. No one to love me. Nothing, zero, naught. If I were a widower, at least I'd have memories. But no woman would have me. They preferred petty fly-by-nights and libertines.
