I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
It isn't often that I do.

1:08:38
You locked yourself in. Why?
1:08:40
I locked the world out.
1:08:45
Oh, Mark, I... I don't know
what has happened to me.

1:08:50
I'm like a seed, sprouting up, clutching at life.
1:08:54
I can hear and... and smell the sun.
1:09:02
I am conscious of surfaces and their textures.
1:09:07
I have such an awareness.
Such an awareness.

1:09:13
Oh, pity the poor people
with their sad faces,

1:09:16
who have missed what we have.
1:09:18
You know, I was thinking last night
of that line in Thompson's poem:

1:09:23
"'Tis ye, 'tis your estranged faces
1:09:27
That miss the many-splendored thing."
1:09:30
I'm so happy, it frightens me.
1:09:34
I have a feeling that heaven is unfair
1:09:36
and is preparing for you
and for me a great sadness

1:09:41
because we have been given so much.
1:09:46
Darling, whatever happens,
always remember:

1:09:49
Nothing is fair nor unfair under heaven.
