Concha: [to Fenix] You can't atone for your sins with nightmares.
[Fenix glances at The Invisible Man poster] Concha: Without me you are nothing. No one sees you and no one notices you. Just like your stupid hero.
The Tattooed Woman: She's a deaf mute and you can do whatever you want with her.
[last lines] Police: [on megaphone] Put your hands up! Fenix: [begins to raise hands] My hands... My hands! My hands. [laughs]

[Young Fenix sobs] Orgo: Stop crying... like a little girl. [pause] Orgo: I'll give you a charm. That'll make you a man.

[sits and begins eating it] Doctor: You can't just stay here all the time, not seeing anyone. [pause] Doctor: Now come on, stand up.
Fenix: I'm sorry... I was having an hallucination...
Pimp: [leads Fenix and the handicapped boys away from ticket counter] Vengan, vengan. Come, I have a present for you. [points to movie posters] Pimp: Listen, this kind of stuff will make you sick. If you promise not to tell, I'll take you somewhere else... that's much more fun that the movies. A little sniff of this... [opens packet of cocaine] Pimp: and we'll see.
