:14:00
But he was your patient, Doctor. If precautions
weren't strong enough, you should have told somebody.
:14:03
I told everybody!
:14:04
Nobody listened.
- There's nothing else I can do.
:14:06
You can get back in there
and get back on the telephone.
:14:08
Tell them exactly
who walked out of here last night ...
:14:10
And tell them exactly where he is going.
- Probably going.
:14:13
I'm wasting my time. - Sam, Haddonfield is
a hundred and fifty miles away from here.
:14:16
Now, now for God's sake, he can't drive a car!
- He was doing very well last night!
:14:20
Maybe someone around here gave him lessons.
:14:26
Doctor Chance, plese come to point C ...
:14:29
Doctor Chance, point C please.
:14:34
... and the book ends.
:14:36
But what Samuels is really talking about here ...
:14:41
is fate.
:14:43
You see ...
:14:44
fate caught up with several lives here.
:14:49
No matter what course of action Collins took ...
:14:53
he was destined to his own fate,
:14:57
his own day of reckoning with himself.
:15:01
The idea ...
:15:03
is ...
:15:04
that destiny ...
:15:06
is a very real, concrete thing
that every person has to deal with.
:15:12
How does Samuels' view of fate
differ from that of Costaine's? Laurie?
:15:17
M'am?
:15:18
Answer the question.
:15:21
Costaine wrote that fate--
was somehow related only to religion
:15:25
or where Samuels felt that ... well, fate was like
a natural element, like earth, air, fire, and water.
:15:30
That's right, Samuels definitely personified fate.
:15:34
In Samuels' writing, fate is a moveable like a mountain.
:15:38
It stands, where man passes a way.
:15:41
Fate never changes.
