Henry James? No, no, too depressing.
1:00:05
Hemingway, perhaps?
No, no, too sweaty.

1:00:08
Plato, Proust, Pinter,
Poe, Pound? No.

1:00:13
The complete works of Martha Stewart?
1:00:16
I have it!
1:00:18
Jules Verne. Right up your alley,
I would think.

1:00:21
-Photonic, right?
-Or what's left of one.

1:00:25
What's left of all of them.
I am the last.

1:00:29
"And these fragments I have shored
against my ruins, " T.S. Eliot.

1:00:33
You wouldn't know him yet, but he
is so depressing, yet so divine.

1:00:41
I'm sorry. The lending library
is out of service.

1:00:44

-Can you tell me what's happening?
-My sources are no longer annotated...

1:00:56
...and my information is anecdotal.
But what was once one race is now two.

1:01:02
One above and one below.
1:01:05
Two distinct species
that have evolved.

1:01:08
-And how do those below survive?
-That is the real question, isn't it?

1:01:19
I don't believe it.
1:01:22
If you don't like the answers,
you should avoid asking the questions.

1:01:30
Look at them.
1:01:32
They have no knowledge of the past.
No ambition for the future.

1:01:38
So lucky.
1:01:40
Why would you say something like that?
1:01:44
Can you even imagine what it's like
to remember everything?

1:01:48
I remember the girl who asked me
about dinosaurs 800,000 years ago.

1:01:53
I remember the last book
I recommended.

1:01:56
Look Homeward, Angel by Thomas Wolfe.
And, yes, I even remember you.
