1:23:00
When I was blind, I couldn't see.
Don't laugh.
1:23:03
I mean, people don't have expectations.
They know what you are.
1:23:07
Or they think they know.
1:23:09
They get on with it. They deal with it.
1:23:11
Yeah.
Didn't get what you counted on, did you?
1:23:15
Oh, boy. And now,
here's where it gets complicated.
1:23:18
Now I can see,
but I don't know what I can see.
1:23:20
Because your eyes play tricks on you,
1:23:23
you see things that you don't wanna see.
1:23:27
Jealousy.
1:23:29
What's most important to you right now?
Seeing, or um...
1:23:33
Amy.
1:23:34
That's what I thought.
So we're not talking eyes here,
1:23:38
we're talking the heart.
1:23:40
The other night I was watching TV.
1:23:43
One of the major disadvantages
of regaining sight, by the way.
1:23:46
- There was this famous pianist.
- A what?
1:23:49
Piano player. And he's about
six, seven hundred years old.
1:23:53
- Will this be a long story?
- Could be.
1:23:55
And they bring out
this seven-year-old prodigy.
1:23:58
He plays Chopin,
backwards and forwards,
1:24:01
with one arm tied behind his back,
spinning plates. Brilliant.
1:24:05
The old master listened appreciatively
and at the end he said,
1:24:10
"You played the piano very well."
1:24:13
"Maybe one day
you will learn to make music."
1:24:18
I think I know what you're saying.
1:24:21
I don't know
if I'll ever be able to make music.
1:24:24
You just gotta focus.
1:24:26
Here. See my hand?
1:24:28
- Yeah.
- All right. Now focus on it.
1:24:32
Forget about everything else,
and that will be difficult here,
1:24:35
but just look.
1:24:41
And your point is?
OK, so, that's what? Seeing?
1:24:45
No, Grasshopper, that's looking.
1:24:47
Looking! You watch the fist.
1:24:49
You see it'll hit you,
but did you want it to?
1:24:52
- No.
- No. That's looking.
1:24:54
Virgil, my advice after three beers,
1:24:56
you'll see a lot, but none of that matters
if you lose sight of what you want.
