Now, as this boy grew older...
:59:03
...his wound grew deeper.
:59:06
Until one day...
:59:08
...life for him lost its reason.
:59:12
He had no faith in any men,
not even himself.

:59:15
He couldn't love...
:59:17
...or feel loved.
He was sick with experience.

:59:21
He began to die.
:59:24
One day, a fool wandered
into the castle...

:59:27
...and found the king alone.
:59:30
And being a fool, he was simple-minded.
He didn't see a king.

:59:34
He only saw a man alone...
:59:36
...and in pain.
:59:38
And he asked the king,
"What ails you, friend?"

:59:42
And the king replied:
:59:43
" I'm thirsty and I need some water
to cool my throat."

:59:50
So the fool took a cup from beside
his bed, filled it with water...

:59:54
...and handed it to the king.
:59:56
And as the king began to drink...
:59:59
...he realized his wound was healed.
1:00:02
He looked and there was
the Holy Grail...

1:00:05
...that which he sought
all of his life.

1:00:07
He turned to the fool and said:
1:00:09
" How could you find that which
my brightest and bravest could not?"

1:00:14
The fool replied:
1:00:15
" I don't know.
1:00:18
I only knew that you were thirsty."
1:00:24
It's very beautiful.
1:00:30
I think I heard that
at a lecture once. I don't know.

1:00:37
It was a professor....
