Laugh, Curtin, old boy,
it's a great joke played on us...
:54:16
by the lord of fate or nature,
whatever you prefer...
:54:19
but whoever or whatever played it
certainly had a sense of humor!
:54:22
The gold has gone back
to where we found it!
:54:43
This is worth ten months
of suffering and labor, this joke is!
:55:13
Well, Howard, what next I wonder?
:55:15
I'm all fixed as far as I'm concerned
as a medicine man.
:55:18
I'll have three meals a day, five if I want...
:55:20
roof over my head,
and a drink now and then to warm me up.
:55:23
I will be worshipped, fed,
and treated like a high priest...
:55:26
for telling people what they want to hear.
Good medicine men are born not made.
:55:30
Come and see me sometime, my boy.
:55:31
Even you'll take off your hat
when you see how respected I am.
:55:34
The day before yesterday,
they wanted to make me their legislature.
:55:37
Their whole legislature!
:55:39
I don't know what that means. I think
it's the highest honor they can bestow.
:55:42
Yeah, I'm all fixed
for the rest of my natural life.
:55:45
How about yourself?
What do you aim to do?
:55:47
I haven't got any idea.
:55:49
You're young. You've got plenty of time
to make three or four fortunes.
:55:53
You know, the worst ain't so bad
when it finally happens.
:55:56
Not half as bad as you figure it'll be
before it happens.
:55:59
I'm no worse off than I was in Tampico.
