:18:05
Well, if I do not comprehend
but I can define it,
:18:11
I am getting near poetry,
which seems to be nearer to life
:18:16
than we suspect.
:18:20
Empirical science
leads to lack of faith.
:18:24
Only an uneducated man
who sees a thing every day
:18:28
thinks he understands it.
:18:32
A true researcher
proceeds among riddles.
:18:36
He errs, but he gets
nearer his goal every day.
:18:43
Señor Avadoro,
will you finish Toledo's story?
:18:47
I remember he was disturbed
by a voice from the other world.
:18:51
Yes.
:18:53
His tender soul was
very sensitive.
:18:59
So he was in deep despair.
:19:22
What will you do?
:19:23
I want to rethink my life.
:19:33
Señor Caballero,
let me make one comment.
:19:38
The voice you heard yesterday
:19:40
said what you could find
in any catechism.
:19:43
Do not burden oneself
with premature worries.
:19:47
My friend, he who once heard
the voice of the dead,
:19:54
will surely not spend
much more time among the living.
