Exquisite beauty

Not a Photoshop trick - he is real. And his name is Yoda.

From MailOnline:
"If Batman had a cat, it would probably look something like this.
The household pet, named Yoda, was born with an extra set of ears. Valerie and Ted Rock took him in two years ago after visiting a bar near their home in Chicago, where he was being passed round by curious drinkers. He was one of a large litter and the owners were looking for a home for him"

"Play it again, Sam"

Did really Rick say "Play it again, Sam" in Casablanca?

In this video you can check - it is a misquotation. 

When Ilsa is at the Café Americain, she asks Sam: "Play it once, Sam, for old times' sake." 

When he feigns ignorance, she responds, "Play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By." 

Later that night, alone with Sam, Rick says, "You played it for her and you can play it for me." and "If she can stand it, I can! Play it!" 

Anyway... here is one of the most magic moments from the Hollywood history:

Good question...

What is the color of my skin?
if I tell you
will that determine the person I am?
If so then maybe for today
I am pink, red, green, or gray.
I am for the most part the same as you
When I am sad then I am blue.
If I call you my sister or brother,
does that have to reflect a certain color?
Our covering is a gift from the Divine,
so are you mocking this gift of mine?
Instead of judging by what you see
why don't you try looking at the inner me,
if the color of my skin
determines the person I am,
then I am invisible to you
for I am who I am.
