Patch Adams

:01:04

All of life is a coming home.

:01:07

Salesmen, secretaries, coal miners,
beekeepers, sword swallowers...

:01:11

all of us.

:01:13

All the restless hearts
of the world...

:01:16

all trying
to find a way home.

:01:21

It's hard to describe
what I felt like then.

:01:24

Picture yourself walking
for days in a driving snow.

:01:27

You don't even know
you're walking in circles...

:01:30

the heaviness of your legs
in the drifts;

:01:33

your shouts
disappearing into the wind.

:01:36

How small you can feel.

:01:38

How far away home can be.

:01:57

Home.

:01:59

The dictionary defines it
as both a place of origin...

:02:02

and a goal or destination.

:02:06

And the storm?

:02:08

The storm was all in my mind.

:02:10

Or, as the poet Dante put it...

:02:12

"In the middle of the journey of my life
I found myself in a dark wood...

:02:16

for I had lost
the right path".

:02:20

Eventually I would find
the right path...

:02:22

but in the most unlikely place.

:02:56

How many fingers
do you see?

:02:57

You crazy...
Stop sneakin' up on me like that.
