: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.
:28:01
Eat this, then.
:28:03
They might make me sick.
They could be poisonous.
:28:11
Don't do that. Spit it out.
:28:19
- Have I made you angry, Mr. Bruce?
- He was right. It might be poisonous.
:28:23
It wouldn't hurt me if it is.
:28:26
- You worry about me, then?
- I'm responsible for you.
:28:30
Yes, then I'll be very good.
:28:32
I promise not to get sick.
I wouldn't want to embarrass you.
:28:40
You hurt my hand.
:28:44
Let me see.
:28:50
You have exquisite hands.
:28:52
I bite my nails.
:28:59
If I learned to trust my hands...
