2:11:00
It seems
a thousand centuries ago.

2:11:08
We went into a camp
to inoculate some children.

2:11:18
We'd left the camp...
2:11:21
after we had inoculated
the children for polio,

2:11:25
and this old man
came running after us,

2:11:29
and he was crying.
2:11:30
He couldn't say--
2:11:34
We went back there.
2:11:36
They had come and hacked off
every inoculated arm.

2:11:43
There they were in a pile,
a pile of...little arms,

2:11:52
and I remember...
2:11:56
l--l--
2:11:58
I cried.
2:12:00
I wept like...
some...grandmother.

2:12:07
I wanted
to tear my teeth out.

2:12:11
I didn't know
what I wanted to do.

2:12:13
And I want to remember it.
2:12:15
I never want to forget it.
2:12:18
I never want to forget.
2:12:20
And then I realized,
like I was shot,

2:12:25
like I was shot
with a diamond--

2:12:29
a diamond bullet
right through my forehead.

2:12:34
I thought,
"My God! The genius of that,

2:12:39
the genius...
the will to do that."

2:12:44
Perfect, genuine,
complete, crystalline, pure.

2:12:51
Then I realized
they were stronger than we

2:12:56
because they could stand it.
These were not monsters.
