:49:10
I hope you don't mind.
:49:12
May I come in?
:49:15
Yeah.
:49:27
I happened to be in Blackwell's
the other day...
:49:31
and I saw you borrow a book.
:49:33
No, steal. I stole it.
Most of these books are stolen.
:49:38
They're written to be read.
At least I read them...
:49:40
which is more
than most people do.
:49:44
So you read differently
to the rest of us, do you?
:49:47
Yes, I do.
:49:50
I read at night.
:49:52
It's the only thing breaks me
concentration. All night sometimes.
:49:58
When I start a new book
my hands are shaking.
:50:03
My eyes are jumping ahead...
Does he feel the way I felt?
:50:06
Does he see
what I've seen?
:50:11
You know, my father used to say...
He was a teacher like you.
:50:14
Well, not like you.
:50:16
He was only
the village schoolmaster.
:50:21
What was it your father
used to say?
:50:27
"We read to know
we're not alone."
:50:35
Would it help
if I made you a small loan?
:50:38
Yes, I expect it would,
if I wanted to be helped.
:50:43
I see. Good-bye.
:50:50
You see, we are like
blocks of stone...
:50:53
out of which the sculptor
carves the forms of men.
:50:57
The blows of His chisel,
which hurt us so much...
