:09:04
Our headmistress,
Miss Mackay...

:09:07
retains him on the walls because
she believes in the slogan "safety first."

:09:12
Safety does not come first.
:09:15
Goodness, Truth
and Beauty come first.

:09:24
One's prime brings one's insight
into these things.

:09:27
One's prime is the moment
one is born for.

:09:31
You little girls must be
on the alert to recognize your prime...

:09:34
at whatever time
it may occur...

:09:37
and live it to the full.
:09:41
"Season of mist
and mellow fruitfulness."

:09:50
I want to tell you
of a moment in my life...

:09:54
when I was very young...
:09:56
younger even
than the man himself.

:09:59
His name was Hugh.
:10:02
I fell deeply in love
with Hugh...

:10:05
in the last year
of the war...

:10:07
but he fell
on Flanders field.

:10:10
Helen McPhee, are you thinking
of doing a day's washing?

:10:13
- No, Miss Brodie.
- You have your sleeves rolled up.

:10:15
Roll them down at once.
I won't have to do with girls...

:10:18
who roll up the sleeves
of their blouses.

:10:20
We are civilized beings.
:10:23
He fell on Flanders field.
:10:27
He fell the week before
armistice was declared.

:10:30
He fell like an autumn leaf.
:10:34
Remind me to show you a map of Flanders
and the spot where my lover...

:10:38
was laid to sleep forever,
before you were born.

:10:44
"Come autumn so pensive
in yellow and gray...

:10:49
and soothe me with tidings
of nature's decay."

:10:54
Robert Burns.
:10:57
Hugh fell
like an autumn leaf.
