Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo':
How can anyone learn patriotism from a school book?
Young Missionary:
The Government requires it.
Old Missionary:
The natives get used to it. Like vaccination.
Young Missionary:
The children already feel like little Peruvians. The other day I asked them, "Are you Indians?" "No," they said, "not we, the ones up the river, they are Indians." And then I asked. "What are Indians?" "They said to me "Indians are people who can't read and who don't know how to wash their clothes."
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo':
And what about the older people?
Old Missionary:
Well, we can't seem to cure them of the idea that our everyday life is only an illusion, behind which lies the reality of dreams.
Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald - 'Fitzcarraldo':
Actually, I'm very interested in these ideas. I specialise in opera myself.
