Miss Annie, put up with her and with us.
:09:08
(Captain) Us?
:09:11
Please.
:09:14
Like the lost lamb in the parable,
I love her all the more.

:09:22
Mrs Keller, I don't think Helen's
worst handicap is deafness or blindness.

:09:27
I think it's your love... and pity.
:09:31
All of you are so sorry for her,
you've kept her like a pet.

:09:35
Why, even a dog you housebreak.
:09:40
It's useless for me to try to teach her
language or anything else here.

:09:44
Miss Annie, before you came
we spoke of putting her in an asylum.

:09:51
What kind of asylum?
:09:56
For mental defectives.
:10:02
I visited there. I can't tell you what I saw.
:10:06
People like animals,
with rats in the halls and...

:10:14
What else are we to do if you give up?
:10:17
Give up?
:10:20
- You said it was hopeless.
- Here.

:10:23
Give up? Why, I only today saw
what has to be done to begin.

:10:28
- I want complete charge of her.
- You have that.

:10:30
No. I mean day and night.
She has to be dependent on me.

:10:34
- (Kate) For what?
- Everything.

:10:36
The food she eats,
the clothes she wears, fresh... air.

:10:41
Yes, the air she breathes.
:10:43
Whatever her body needs
is a primer to teach her out of.

:10:47
The one who lets her have it should be
her teacher, not anyone who loves her.

:10:51
- But if she runs from you to us...
- Yes. That's the point.

:10:58
I'll have to live with her somewhere else.
