What a admirable woman! The italian should be proud to have this lady so exemplary.

One of the few reason that make me proud to be italian. She always says that she has never been interested in taking care of herself, but I don't so...she so healthy, so elegant. Thank you Rita, live for a hundred more years!

Grazie Rita

Great woman! Her 100th birthday was a few weeks ago.

He asked her, @ 1:22, if she thought isolation was actually beneficial. Rita's reply: "I believe it's true: Difficulty gave the possibility to use your best capacity." I have a young veteran friend who has lived homeless, tell me he's afraid to leave his government support check to go try, because he's afraid he might fail and lose his very meager check. The black community in the US also has seen how destructive government aid became to the black families that qualified for financial assistance for single mothers who did not have a man in the home. Black author, Jason Riley, wrote a book entitled, "Please Stop Helping Us" - because it's just enough help to keep people from trying. Sorry to ramble. Just thinking.

What a sweet lady and still smart.

Rest in peace =)

Very accomplished women.

Donne evolute..,forte..,e molto intelligente che anno cambiato il mondo..!! Dio illumina tutti..AMEN..

At 101 it makes her one of the world's oldest person still working. She has no plan for retirement according to her.

@intrigantearsenico non ho detto né insinuato che ha comprato il nobel, ho detto che avevo sentito già questa voce e la questione mi ha incuriosito...perché dovrei vergognarmi? è un male volersi informare forse?

@piuSORDIperTUTTI you are simply ridicolous!!!!!! She's a fantastic and great woman!!

piùSORDIperTUTTI, avevo già sentito quella storia del nobel comprato, dove posso trovare un riferimento sulla versione completa dell'accaduto? la cosa mi ha incuriosito
