You know, Maria,
I sometimes wonder if we'll...

1:21:32
ever discover the meaning of it all...
1:21:35
working in a place like this.
1:21:38
Well, I've worked in worse places,
philosophically speaking.

1:21:42
Really, Maria?
1:21:43
Yes.
1:21:45
I used to work in the Académie française.
1:21:48
But it didn't do me any good at all.
1:21:50
I once worked in the library
in the Prado in Madrid...

1:21:55
but it didn't teach me nothin', I recall.
1:21:59
And the Library of Congress
you'd have thought would hold some key...

1:22:04
but it didn't, and neither did
the Bodleian Library.

1:22:08
In the British Museum,
I hoped to find some clue.

1:22:13
I worked there from 9:00 till 6:00,
read every volume through...

1:22:18
but it didn't teach me nothing
about life's mystery.

1:22:22
I just kept getting older,
and it got more difficult to see.

1:22:26
Till eventually, me eyes went,
and me arthritis got bad.

1:22:31
So now, I'm cleaning up in here.
1:22:35
But I can't be really sad...
1:22:38
'cause you see, I feel that life's a game.
1:22:41
You sometimes win or lose...
1:22:44
and though I may be down right now...
1:22:47
at least I don't work for Jews.
1:22:55
I'm so sorry.
1:22:56
I had no idea we had a racist working here.
