Quotes:

Momo: Arab means open from 8 til midnight, even Sunday.

Monsieur Ibrahim: Slowness is the key of happiness.

Monsieur Ibrahim: They spin around their hearts because God is there.

Momo: You're circumcised too?

Momo: When are you going to adopt me?::Monsieur Ibrahim: Tomorrow if you like.

Momo: [reading Ibrahim's will] This is my will and testament. I, Ibrahim Demirdji, hereby leave all my goods to Moses Schmitt, my son Momo because he chose me as his father and because I've given him everything I've learned in this life. Now you too will know what's in my Koran, Momo. It's all there is to know.

Monsieur Ibrahim: To find out if a country is rich or poor, look at the bins. If there are bins and no rubbish, it's rich. If there's rubbish by the bins, it's neither rich nor poor... it's touristy. And if there's rubbish but no bins, then it's poor.

Monsieur Ibrahim: A man's heart is like a caged bird. When you dance, your heart sings... and then rises to heaven.

Momo: Do you think I'm good-looking?::Monsieur Ibrahim: [chuckles] You're very good-looking.::Momo: Will I be good-looking enough to attract girls without paying?::Monsieur Ibrahim: In a few years, they'll pay for you.::Momo: It's not great for now.::Monsieur Ibrahim: Of course not. See how you go about it? You stare as if to say, "See how good-looking I am." And so they just laugh. You have to look at them as if to say, "I've never seen such beauty before."
