Quote context

[...]

- You feel it more than usual after you've been eating venison? You do, don't you? I don't eat venison, but if I did, I believe I would.

- Ah, now we're getting at it. That's most important.

- How old are you?

- Fifty-one. Fifty-two next year.

- Fifty-two next year? Well, my friend, well, well. You can work today as usual, that won't hurt you, but go to bed early.

Top rated lines from this movie

Here in this town live some hundreds of people, a featureless, meaningless mess of humanity. What is my task? To rescue and resolve each one of them into a scientific individuality, into a medical existence of his own.
Do you suppose they even know what a microbe is? -I doubt it. Some of them may have heard the word, but I expect they think it's a sort of fly.

No old herb women? No white witches? -Oh, nothing like that. -Good. Then the reign of medical science can begin.
I put a man to bed. I watch. I wait. Something will come of it.
