And now, gentlemen, we come
to the subject of leather.
:13:40
Very few people realize
what leather really is...
:13:43
and what it means to mankind.
:13:46
Where would we be
without leather?
:13:48
I ask you.
:13:51
It's leather that turns
the wheels of our industries!
:13:54
It's leather
in the time of war...
:13:57
furnishes our horses with
harness to pull the cannons...
:14:01
to conquer our enemies!
:14:05
And then, where would
Napoleon have been...
:14:08
without leather
to make a saddle?
:14:10
He'd have been riding bareback!
:14:20
And then think!
:14:22
Think of shoes!
:14:24
Without them,
we would be uncivilized.
:14:28
Barefoot like tea garoni.
:14:39
Could we walk through
snow and slush barefoot?
:14:42
Could we walk
through the desert barefoot?
:14:45
No! A thousand times no!
:14:56
Fine.
:14:57
That's the way
you should've talked...
