Divine Conversations and Mortal Questions
Stephen: [laughs, speaking heavenward; Heavenward; to William]
Him? That can't be William Wallace. I'm prettier than this man. All right Father, I'll ask him. If I risk my neck for you, will I get a chance to kill Englishmen?
Hamish:
Is your father a ghost, or do you converse with the Almighty?
Stephen: [Heavenward; to William and Hamish]
In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God. Yes, Father! The Almighty says don't change the subject, just answer the fuckin question.
Hamish:
Mind your tongue.
Campbell:
Insane Irish.
Stephen:
Smart enough to get a dagger past your guards, old man.
William:
That's my friend, Irishman. And the answer to your question is yes, if you fight for me, you get to kill the English.
Stephen: [puts knife away]
Excellent! Stephen is my name. I'm the most wanted man on my island. Except I'm not on my island of course. More's the pity.
Hamish:
Your island? You mean Ireland.
Stephen:
Yeah, it's mine.
Hamish:
You're a madman.
Stephen: [laughs]
I've come to the right place then.
