,and Google isn’t coming up with it. Sometime in the 1990’s or 2000’s (if I remember correctly) there was a song with an quote outtake of Bogart from Casablanca saying “Who are you really and what were you before?”. It’s repeated in the song a couple of times. I’ve been trying to remember it for days now, to no avail. ---
