Such a short speech.It was over before I realized it.

I have not watched the movie. Why is "Swiss cuckoo clock"so famous? I do not quite get it. I copied the film scripts from online.

*************************

What the fellow says. In Italy, for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leoonardo De Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they have brotherly love and 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
