He is humble thinker from a noble family,
and a true heir of Sadegh Hedayat.

-Friends, hello.
-Hello.
:21:27
I had any words to say today, Mr. Rahmani,
by saying three things about me.
:21:32
He's taken my breath away.
You all know Mr. Rahmani well.
:21:37
Once he gets hold of a microphone,
it's not clear where he'll end.
:21:43
Mr. Rahmani, thank you for your kindness,
but I disagree with everything you said.
:21:51
Firstly, you said I'm humble.
:21:55
In my opinion, humility means
excess flattery, an inverted lie.
:22:06
Secondly, you said
I'm Sadegh Hedayat's true heir.
:22:12
I saw him near the end of
his life many times.
:22:19
But I haven't inherited anything from him,
especially his modesty and shyness.
:22:27
You also mentioned
my noble family.
:22:33
It's unfortunate that
we still talk about such things.
:22:37
I believe that in intellectual gathering,
there is no place for such words.
:22:46
What is the meaning of a noble family?
:22:50
Regardless, we haven't gathered here
tonight to discuss this.
:22:54
We are here to talk about our dear friend
Parviz who is no longer among us.
