Drop the wine, from the waves
a new goddess was born.

1:12:39
But you French,
with all these novelties,
1:12:43
the restoration of monuments,
the real women who play,
1:12:46
- do you think you're rendering
a service to Rome? - Of course.
1:12:49
Rome will be the second city
of the empire, a modern city.
1:12:53
This way you'll destroy it, the facet
of Rome was built through millennia,
1:12:57
- by its kings, by its Popes...
- Its brigands, its idleness...
1:13:02
- Rome is beautiful the way it is.
- You are painters, literate...
1:13:07
- But let's consider the past.
- There aren't true artists here.
1:13:11
- What? - Name a true artist.
- Come to see my show.
1:13:15
But if someone takes away the sheep
and the aqueduct,
1:13:19
and a half-naked young boy
with a flute, you're ruined.
1:13:23
Then you get mad at the French
thinking they bereave you of the inspiration.
1:13:28
But the truth is
you have nothing to say.
