John Keating:
Close your eyes, close your eyes! Close 'em! Now, describe what you see.
Todd Anderson:
Uh, I-I close my eyes.
John Keating:
Yes.
Todd Anderson:
Uh, and this image floats beside me.
John Keating:
A sweaty-toothed madman.
Todd Anderson:
A sweaty-toothed madman with a stare that pounds my brain.
John Keating:
Oh, that's *excellent*! Now, give him action - make him do something!
Todd Anderson:
H-His hands reach out and choke me.
John Keating:
That's it! Wonderful, wonderful!
Todd Anderson:
And all the time he's mumbling.
John Keating:
What's he mumbling?
Todd Anderson:
Mumbling truth.
John Keating:
Yeah, yes.
Todd Anderson:
Truth like-like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold.
John Keating:
[some of the class start to laugh]
Forget them, forget them! Stay with the blanket. Tell me about that blanket!
Todd Anderson:
Y-Y-You push it, stretch it, it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it, it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying t-to the moment we leave dying, it'll just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream.
[long pause then class applauds]
John Keating:
Don't you forget this.
