V for Vendetta!

Off late i have been feeling that after seeing so many english movies, reading umpteenth novels, I have develop an impregnable lexicon (flaunting eh!). But after hearing these lines, I chortled for i now know that there's just no point in our life when we can put a stop to learning.

Frankly, I can't understand a thing about these lines. I had to consult the dictionary, Pause the movie, consult the dictionary and so on - more of a GP (Geometric Series) series!

Have a confusing read : )

Evey: Who are you?

V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of "what", and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey: Well I can see that.

V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation, I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Evey: Oh...right.

V: But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace sobriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis personæ.

V: Voilà ! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you, and you may call me V.

Evey: Are you like.. a crazy person?

These lines have been taken from the movie V for Vendetta.
Seems as if the protagonist has literally used all the words starting from the alphabet 'V' in the dictionary.
Keep Breathing.
