Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
What do you want? Sixtus Andresen:
I... thought it only right, considering that you are... de facto commandant of the village, to acquaint you with a decision that I've made. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
I'm very busy. Sixtus Andresen:
I know. I hope you'll forgive me. I know I'm being selfish. But, uhh... Why did you want my house? Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
For a block house! But what was it you wanted to see me about? Sixtus Andresen:
I cannot let you have my house. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
You what? Sixtus Andresen:
I must forbid you to enter my house. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
[laughs hysterically]
Are you insane? I could have you shot! Sixtus Andresen:
I know. But if you're interested, I'll tell you what brought me to my conclusion, which is, I can assure you, completely unshakeable. You see, I am well past seventy, and at my age it would be foolish for me to be like Socrates' enemies, and fear death more than I love truth. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
Go on! Sixtus Andresen:
...I have no guns, no airplanes, no force. I disdain. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
SILENCE! Sixtus Andresen:
What you don't understand is that the individual man... Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
QUIET, YOU FOOL! Sixtus Andresen:
- The individual man must stand against you like a rock. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
[shaking Andresen]
Will you STOP! Sixtus Andresen:
[calmly]
No. If I were afraid, there might be hope for you, but I am not. [Koenig slaps Andresen across the face] Sixtus Andresen:
There are certain things you cannot take away from me... What is mine, is mine. Do you think you can stop the working of my brain and my heart? [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
We are not animals; we are men. [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
That is the foundation of law - you cannot win. [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
Where are your courts? [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
Your judges? [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
And your juries? [slap] Sixtus Andresen:
Until you bring them forward, I must forbid you my house. Captain Hauptmann Koenig:
HE 'FORBIDS'! [knocks the old man down the stairwell]
