Sybil Gordon:
The great Harold Abrahams. My brother will be insanely jealous.
Harold Abrahams:
So will mine.
Sybil Gordon:
You don't look very ruthless.
Harold Abrahams:
Should I?
Sybil Gordon:
According to my brother. Tim says that's why you always win. - Why running?
Harold Abrahams:
Why singing?
Sybil Gordon:
My job. No, that's silly. I do it because I love it.
Sybil Gordon:
Do you love running?
Harold Abrahams:
I'm more of an addict. It's a compulsion, a weapon.
Sybil Gordon:
Against what?
Harold Abrahams:
Being Jewish, I suppose.
Sybil Gordon:
[LAUGHS]
You're not serious?
Harold Abrahams:
You're not Jewish, or you wouldn't ask.
Sybil Gordon:
Fiddlesticks. People don't care. Anyway, being Jewish hasn't done you any harm.
Harold Abrahams:
I'm what I call semi-deprived.
Sybil Gordon:
That sounds clever... What does it mean?
Harold Abrahams:
It means they lead me to water but they won't let me drink.
Sybil Gordon:
You're a funny old stick, Mr. Harold Abrahams. Funny...... but fascinating.
Harold Abrahams:
I'll settle for the fascinating.
Sybil Gordon:
Life isn't that gloomy, is it?
Harold Abrahams:
[SOFTLY]
Not tonight... You're so beautiful.
Sybil Gordon:
Like you.
