Quote context

[...]

- I ask you to think on the hours when one sleeps. Do you know what happens then? The body may lie still in bed, but what happens to the thoughts, the spirit? With what ancient demons does it spend its time, and in what deeds?

- And Thea, does she know?

- Would you say that I am different from other men?

- Different? No.

- Are my thoughts different?

- Every man has his own thoughts.

- You don't understand. Are Greeks different? I mean, old fellows like myself who were brought up in the mountain villages?

- Sure. Greeks are different from Bavarians, Bavarians are different from Irish. Sure, you're different.

- I still don't seem to make you understand. Let me try again.

- This trouble, this sickness we have, the fact that we may all die, toward that am I different?

- Yeah, I suppose you are.

- How?

- Well, Albrecht and I, and St. Aubyn, too, before he died, we sort of take it, accept it, but you're fighting it.

- It seems to me you're fighting something bigger than the plague, wrestling with something you can't see, and Kyra, too. I get that feeling from Kyra.

- And Thea?

- She's young.

- You're going out to meet her. I wouldn't go.

- What are you going to do, General? Give me a paternal lecture on bringing Thea home early?
