"Artie Fufkin: [after nobody turns up, at an album-signing promotion] You know what I want you to do? Will you do something for me?
David St. Hubbins: What?
Artie Fufkin: Do me a favor. Just kick my ass, okay? Kick this ass for a man, that's all. Kick my ass. Enjoy. Come on. I'm not asking, I'm telling with this. Kick my ass!"
Promoter in Spinal Tap : Artie Fufkin (thx Carine ;) ...)

"La femme dans notre société contemporaine n'est pas moins volage que l'homme. Elle est simplement plus discrète ..."
