1:00:01
- You're not listening, are you?
- Yes, sir.
1:00:04
You're not! Crossland,
you're not listening, are you?
1:00:06
- I am, sir.
- None of you are listening!
1:00:08
Look at that glazed expression
on your faces.
1:00:11
You never listen!
Yours is the generation that never listens!
1:00:15
Cos we can never tell you anything.
1:00:18
You're the sophisticated ones,
1:00:21
with all your music, and your gear.
1:00:24
But, you know, it's superficial.
It's a sheen.
1:00:28
There's nothing solid
or worthwhile underneath.
1:00:31
And why do I know this?
1:00:34
Why do I know there's been
no advance in discipline or decency,
1:00:38
or morals or manners?
1:00:40
Why do I know it? Because I still
have to use this to you boys every day.
1:00:46
Why? In the '20s and '30s,
I could understand it.
1:00:50
They were hard times,
1:00:52
but they produced qualities in people
that you lot will never have.
1:00:56
I can be stopped in the street
by someone I taught then.
1:00:58
We'll talk about the old days, and we'll
laugh about the thrashings I gave him.
1:01:03
But what do I get from you lot?
1:01:07
A honk from a greasy,
pimply-faced youth
1:01:11
sitting at the wheel
of a big second-hand car.
1:01:14
I don't know. I just don't know.
1:01:19
No guts! No backbone!
Nothing to commend you whatsoever.
1:01:24
Mere fodder for the mass media.
1:01:30
And so, until someone
produces a better solution,
1:01:34
I'll continue to use this cane,
1:01:37
knowing fully well that you'll be
back for it time and time and time again.
1:01:43
You smokers will go out of here
with your hands ringing.
1:01:47
Will it stop you smoking? You're already
looking forward to smoking at break.
1:01:51
- What are you grinning about?
- Not grinnin'.
1:01:54
You are! I'll bet you're already
thinking about smoking at break.
1:01:57
Empty your pockets.
1:01:59
I bet they're loaded with cigarettes.
Come on, all of you, empty your pockets.
