I know that everyone
dreams about being famous...
:40:04
...but it would be interesting
to know...
:40:06
...what it's like
to relinquish all anonymity.
:40:12
- Gets me a date.
- Does that bother you?
:40:16
That people only wanna be with you
because of who you are?
:40:19
- As opposed to?
- Well...
:40:23
...the real you.
:40:26
The real me.
:40:30
The real me was brought up
as a nice middle-class kid...
:40:35
...which is not the easiest thing...
:40:37
...when you are extremely poor
and living in a slum.
:40:41
The real me spent most of his time
getting the shit kicked out of him...
:40:46
...and dreaming about
something better.
:40:51
Like being here
with someone like you.
:40:54
Fifteen years ago, he had,
for one brief moment...
:40:59
... made me feel like
the most special person in the world.
:41:02
"The miracle in my life
is not that I survived polio...
:41:06
...and am standing here today.
:41:08
No. The reason I consider myself
to be a miracle girl...
:41:13
...is because I had
the good fortune...
:41:14
...to meet Lanny and Vince
when I was sick."
:41:17
It was a moment
seen by millions of people...
:41:21
... but felt only by me.
:41:29
That moment had changed my life.
:41:36
I was about to find my own way
into Lanny's book...
:41:40
... after he had found
such a powerful way into mine.
