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.
