:24:02
Of course. Yes. How are you?
:24:08
- Thank you.
- Thanks.

:24:10
Funny the way things work out,
isn't it?

:24:12
- I've not noticed that they do.
- You're probably right. Well...

:24:19
- "Fight me. I can take it."
- What?

:24:22
- "Fight me. I can take it." You...
- Did I say that?

:24:26
Yeah.
:24:29
What are you doing these days?
:24:31
Teaching. Feel free
to give a hollow laugh.

:24:35
No, I suspect you're a born teacher.
:24:39
I do turn out
to be quite good at it.

:24:42
Good.
:24:45
- Your father's a teacher, isn't he?
- Yes.

:24:47
- Aye.
- He died a few months ago.

:24:52
I'm sorry.
:24:54
I loved him very much.
:24:59
Did he know that?
:25:04
I think so.
:25:06
- I think he knew.
- Yeah.

:25:10
One has to say things.
:25:12
The moment passes,
and then you're alone again.

:25:16
Yes.
:25:20
"We read to know we're not alone."
:25:24
That's what he said,
wasn't it? Your father?

:25:27
See, I haven't forgotten.
:25:30
Well.
:25:36
- Jack, what news?
- Good news, I think. Yes, good news.

:25:40
- I'm very glad.
- Thank you, Christopher.

:25:43
Christopher can scoff,
but I know how hard you've been praying.

:25:48
And now God
is answering your prayer.

:25:52
That's not why I pray.
I pray because I can't help myself.

:25:55
I pray because I'm helpless.
I pray beca...

:25:57
I pray because the need flows out of me
all the time, waking and sleeping.
