Héctor: What are you doing?
Miguel: I'm walking like a skeleton.
Héctor: No, skeletons don't walk like that.
Miguel: That's how you walk.
Héctor: No, I don't.
Victor: It's not a mushroom, okay. It's a truffle.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Are you talking to the motorcycle again?
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: I want to be useful, somehow.
Silvia (Peru): You're wasting your time.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Why?
Silvia (Peru): Life is pain.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Yeah, it's pretty screwed up. You gotta fight for every breath and tell death to go to hell.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Me, I'm not the same me, at least not the same spiritual me.
Ernesto Guevara Lynch (Argentina): Son, tough times are ahead. To tell the truth, I've always dreamt of doing something like this. I confess that if I were a few years younger, I'd climb on that motorcycle with you.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Imagine I'm doing it for both of us.
Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Even though we are too insignificant to be spokesmen for such a noble cause, we believe, and this journey has only confirmed this belief, that the division of American into unstable and illusory nations is a complete fiction. We are one single mestizo race from Mexico to the Magellan Straits. And so, in an attempt to free ourselves from narrow minded provincialism, I propose a toast to Peru and to a United America.
Julio Zapata: Traveling is really cool.
Tenoch: Yeah, but with mushrooms! You've never stepped into a single plane.
