[For a moment he didn't say anything. Just watched the slow-motion movements of foam disintegrating in his cup, the layer of it merging slowly with the steamed milk.]

You said something to me once about . . . how I wasn't his legacy. I remember being so deeply struck by it, because when I told Bruno, he said the same thing. The same words exactly. And Jotaro told me that he was - we all are - afraid of being like him. I remember . . .

[He laughed, a little shaky.]

I remember that was the first time you addressed me by my first name. I do know what that means, you know. To you. And then Jotaro did, too, by saying he didn't want Don Giovanna, and - the two of you, due, you're magnificent bastards, honestly. You know how to cut me down at the knees with no effort.

So you know what I mean when I say that there are things about what I know of him that I see in myself, and I hope you'll respect me when I say that that isn't self-flagellation. It's the truth.
