Willy!
:44:46
Hello, Eric.
Welcome back.
:44:48
Thank you.
I was going to call you.
:44:50
I wanted to tell you about
my conference in Berlin.
:44:53
Any time. I'll be waiting.
:44:55
- Your office, 3:00?
- Splendid.
:44:58
Eric! Where have you been
keeping yourself?
:45:01
I called you a dozen times,
but you never answered.
:45:05
I would think that
you'd finally get the idea
:45:07
that I want nothing to do with you
or your propositions.
:45:11
I don't do business with Jews, Gumpel,
so stop bothering me.
:45:32
That, I think,
was the loneliest moment of my life.
:45:37
When other people hate you,
it's unfortunate,
:45:39
but when you hate yourself,
it's unbearable.
:45:42
And hurting Max the way I did
filled me with self-contempt.
:45:47
Of course, news that
I'd publicly insulted him
:45:49
didn't take long to spread.
:45:51
My wife called me at the office
and berated me for what I had done.
:45:55
I went home and tried to mollify her,
but it was hopeless.
:45:58
I couldn't tell her why I had to do it.
