1:07:01
then men of no scruples like Sedara
will come ahead.
1:07:07
Everything will be the same
as before.
1:07:11
Listen to your heart, Prince, not
to the proud truths you just said.
1:07:19
Prince, please, do cooperate.
1:07:28
You are a gentleman, and it was
a privilege to meet you.
1:07:35
You are right.
1:07:39
But not when you say that Sicilians
want to better themselves.
1:07:44
They never will,
because they think they're perfect.
1:07:48
Their vanity
is stronger than their misery.
1:07:54
Please, take a seat,
l want to tell you something.
1:07:59
A few days before Garibaldi came
to Palermo, some English officers
1:08:06
asked me to take them up
to the terrace of my house
1:08:10
from where you can see
the mountains surrounding the city.
1:08:15
They were ecstatic about the view,
1:08:20
but confessed their astonishment
at the shabbiness of the streets.
1:08:25
l didn't try to explain to them,
as l did with you,
1:08:29
that one thing
was derived from the other.
1:08:35
One of the officers asked me:
1:08:37
''What did the Garibaldians
come to Sicily for ?''
1:08:40
l said: ''They're here
to teach us how to behave.
1:08:45
But they won't succeed,
because we're Gods''.
1:08:48
They laughed, but l'm afraid
they didn't understand.
1:08:57
lt's late, Chevalley,
it's almost time for dinner.
