:26:03
He says we can stay.
:26:36
I never knew
you could paint like that...
:26:38
...simply with grasses
and things of that kind.
:26:41
They fade, but there are no colors
like them while they last.
:26:46
I'd love to paint
or do anything like that.
:26:51
How do you begin?
What is it that you do?
:26:54
I don't do anything.
My hand just moves, and I follow it.
:26:58
That's it.
Your hand moves, mine doesn't.
:27:01
I can't trust my hands.
:27:03
You must learn if you want them
to lead you to things you love.
:27:07
No, I'm afraid I have
a scholar's mind, not an artist's.
:27:10
It's a very different faculty,
you know.
:27:12
You have the gift of tongues.
That's a great gift.
:27:15
But it's nothing compared to you.
:27:18
I've studied them. I know the grammar,
but you've invented one of your own.
:27:22
- That's the greatest gift.
- I didn't invent it.
:27:25
- It was taught to me by my people.
- You actually hear it, then?
:27:28
I mean, you actually
hear them speaking it?
:27:30
Oh, I'd love to hear it. I'm fascinated
by languages, you know.
:27:34
Do you think they would
speak it to me?
:27:38
Perhaps you would teach me.
:27:39
I wouldn't be allowed to teach you
without approval.
:27:42
It's a language very few
are permitted to speak.
:27:44
But what would I have to do?
I'm sure I could persuade them.
:27:48
You would have to demonstrate great
courage and a great capacity for joy.
:27:52
But I can. But I can.
You don't understand me.
