1:05:01
Not your sex, not your race,
not your class.

1:05:04
Your own actions.
And you're angry.

1:05:06
You ask me here.
What do you want?

1:05:08
You want to charm me.
You want to convince me.

1:05:11
You want me to recant.
I will not recant.

1:05:14
Why should I?
What I say is right.

1:05:15
You were going to tell me that
you have a wife and child...

1:05:19
that you have a career...
1:05:21
and that you've worked
for 20 years for this.

1:05:24
Do you know
what you've worked for?

1:05:26
Power! For power.
Do you understand?

1:05:30
And you sit there and tell me
stories about your house...

1:05:33
and all about private schools
and privilege...

1:05:35
and how you are entitled
to buy, to spend...

1:05:39
to mock, to summon.
All your stories.

1:05:49
All your silly, weak guilt.
1:05:52
It's all about privilege...
1:05:55
and you won't know it.
Don't you see?

1:05:57
You've worked twenty years
for the right to insult me.

1:06:00
And you feel entitled
to be paid for it.

1:06:03
Your home, your wife...
1:06:04
your sweet deposit
on your house.

1:06:06
Don't you have feelings?
1:06:09
That's my point, you see...
1:06:11
"Don't you have feelings?"
1:06:13
Your final argument...
1:06:14
I don't take your side,
you question if I'm human.

1:06:17
Don't you have feelings?
1:06:18
I have a responsibility...
1:06:20
- To?
- This institution.

1:06:23
To the students, to my group.
1:06:24
- Your group?
- Yes.

1:06:26
Because I speak, not for myself,
but for the group.

1:06:30
For those who suffer
what I suffer...

1:06:32
on behalf of whom,
even if I were inclined to...

1:06:35
Forgive? Forget?
Overlook your...

1:06:39
- My behavior?
- It would be wrong.

1:06:42
Even if you were inclined
to forgive me?

1:06:44
- It would be wrong.
- And what would transpire?

1:06:46
- Transpire?
- Yes.

1:06:47
- Happen?
- Yes.

1:06:49
Then say it,
for Christ's sake!

1:06:51
Who the hell
do you think that you are?

1:06:53
You want a post...
1:06:55
you want unlimited power
to do and say what you want...

1:06:59
as it pleases you...
testing, questioning...
