1:33:06
I was sure I had lost my job...
1:33:09
yet it almost felt like a relief.
1:33:12
I felt I had been spared the curse
of spending my whole life...

1:33:15
among people
who never forgive you...

1:33:18
for stepping out of line
or making a mistake.

1:33:22
People who speak
but never understand.

1:33:28
Instead of mourning the loss
of my job, I thought of you.

1:33:32
Me?
1:33:34
Yes.
1:33:36
When we're faced with death...
1:33:38
we find ourselves appreciating
what is good and true around us.

1:33:43
I realized how much
I care for you...

1:33:46
and I took pity on myself.
1:33:49
I thought I'd like to spend
my whole life with you.

1:33:52
You really did?
Then why are you leaving?

1:33:54
Because we should have
married younger.

1:33:58
- And now?
- Now I'm not sure anymore.

1:34:01
It's too late for me, Carlo.
1:34:04
I belong to such a different world.
1:34:07
I'm sure I would regret it.
1:34:09
I'm too accustomed to my freedom...
1:34:11
to be a quiet little wife
in a modest little house.

1:34:16
Working is my way
of being a woman...

1:34:19
of loving,
of taking part in the world.

1:34:22
You understand?
1:34:24
Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough
to meet a man I could live with...

1:34:29
without either one us having
to give up our own self.

1:34:33
But if you and I were together...
1:34:36
I'm certain one of us
would be unhappy.

1:34:39
Maybe.
1:34:41
I can't imagine being unhappy
at your side...

1:34:43
but I can't ask you
to take that chance.

1:34:45
Do you think it's easy for me
to give you up?

1:34:53
I feel like a damsel in distress.
1:34:58
My God, it's 5:00!
