Old
Man: [To his friends.] Don't be so impatient.
You'll hear what my message is. In
a few minutes.
Old Woman: [Aside.] Ah! . . . I can
hear his voice! . . . [To her friends.] Do you
realise my husband's always been misunderstood? His great moment
has come at
last.
Old Man: Listen! Experience of all kinds has
deepened my knowledge of life and
philosophy . . . I am not a selfish man: I want all mankind to
reap the benefit.
