I had a small tobacco shop in Madras. Made just enough money to survive. One day this policeman comes in and tells me I owe him some tax. I said okay. This is common. So I pay him. The next day, the same policeman come and keep coming and keep coming. And I am paying, and I'm paying him, and I'm paying him, and I'm paying him. And finally, on the fifth day, I take a knife and I stab him in his chest.

I live here. - What? - I live here, in terminal. Gate 67. - You live at the airport? - Yes. Day and night. This home, like you. They tell me to wait. So I wait. All frequent fliers feel the same way you do, Viktor. Everybody's waiting. Everybody. - For a flight, for a meeting... - I don't wait for flight or meeting.

I was 18 years old when I started working for the airlines. I've been doing this over 20 years. And now there's no more pretending. This is it. It's why my address book is by city, and my pager goes off during dinner. You can switch off pager. I wish I could. I've been waiting for a phone call for seven years. I know it's coming, Viktor. That's why I can't break it off. That's why I live out of hotels and have my little suitcase packed, ready to go, just in case he wants to meet me for the weekend. Yeah. I've been waiting my whole life. Just don't know what the hell for. I'm so sorry.

Did you know the croissant was invented in Romania? - Tell me. - Okay. It's 1742, and the Turks invade Bucharest, making a surprise attack under the cover of night. But the town bakers... Sorry. So, the bakers? - No, never mind. It's a dumb story. - No, please. I'm sorry, Viktor. Nobody really cares where the croissant was invented. I'll bet the Romanians themselves don't give a shit. I care. Is histories. Is truth.
