Death in Venice quotes

  • Travel Agent: Week by week there are more deaths. It's quite impossible to count the number of the dead.

  • Travel Agent: Well, people all know, of course, they are terrified. But, they're silent. And do you know why? Summer! Tourists! The whole business of Venice is tourists. Can you imagine Venice without tourists? Well, it would be more desolate than in the winter.
