Or concert halls.
I don't go in for being superior.

:07:03
- Don't you? I do.
- Come along, Chapman. You're in need of food.

:07:08
I expect Lord Risley isn't.
:07:10
I've put him off with my low talk.
:07:15
I simply can't think of a reply to that.
:07:18
What about saying nothing?
:07:21
Say nothing? Horrible.
:07:23
He must be mad.
:07:25
What you do
is more important than what you say.

:07:29
Your deeds are more important
than your words.

:07:32
What is the difference?
Words are deeds.

:07:35
Are you trying to say
that these few minutes talking...

:07:38
in the dean's rooms
have done nothing for you?

:07:43
Will you, for instance,
ever forget that you've met me?

:07:45
You're confusing what is important...
:07:49
with what is impressive.
:07:52
Chapman and Hall will always remember
they've met you. Of that I have no doubt.

:07:56
Exactly. Because of my conversation.
:07:58
Oh, they'll forget that they were engaged
in the act of eating a cutlet.

:08:01
At least the cutlet does some good to them.
You do not.

:08:05
I mean, Dean, that a cutlet
merely influences their subconscious life.

:08:10
I, by my words,
shape the consciousness.

:08:12
I am therefore not only
more impressive than the cutlet...

:08:16
but infinitely more important.
:08:20
Your dean here dwells in superstitious clouds
of Christian self-righteousness.

:08:24
Your dean pretends that
only insensate faith is of any significance.

:08:28
And daily he droops,
soporific, into his soup.

:08:31
Oh, Risley, shut up.
Come on.

:08:35
I think if a man has ideas like that...
:08:38
he should have the courtesy
to keep them to himself.

:08:40
No, no, no.
On the contrary, one must talk, talk, talk.

:08:43
It's only by talking
that we shall caper upon the summit.

:08:47
Otherwise the mountains
will overshadow us.

:08:51
I'm sure, Hall, you will agree.
:08:59
Wait.
