- What are you trying to tell me? Speak plainly.

- We face death here.

- Do you suppose I don't know that?

- Things that we cannot tell in words, but which we feel. Feel and fear.

- You are an old fool. Let me pass.

- 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?
