Porco Rosso — memorable quote from Porco Rosso

“What use is strength in modern society? You have to be smart.”

“The role of the young is to break new ground without fear of failure. Remain in memories, not record books! Lose the battle, win the war!”

“The most inflated egos are often the most fragile.”

“It's not about wanting to do something that you can do, it's about what you do. It's not about wanting to become someone, it's about who you want to become.”

“Whats the probability of drawing the ace of spades from a deck with no jokers? Normaly it would be 1/50. But what if its a brand new deck? The position of cards in a new deck are typically identical, so that means if you take out the jokers and draw the card at the very bottom, it's the ace of spades almost 100% of the time. Oh that's right! I didn't say a word about it being a new deck. Rather, you didn't ask. Being in the "no" gives you the power to turn the probability of winning from 1.92% to 100%. The more knowledge of a party will be the inevitable victor.”
