[Mark's first meeting with John du Pont] John du Pont: You look good. You look strong. Fit. Mark Schultz: Thank you, sir. John du Pont: Feeling confident? [Mark nods yes] John du Pont: That's one of the most important elements of entering a match is feeling the confidence, knowing that you're going to win. Feeling it inside. If you get - go to a match knowing you're going to win that match, odds are you're going to win that match. You're training with your brother Dave? Mark Schultz: Yes, sir. John du Pont: Great Dave Schultz? Mark Schultz: Yeah. John du Pont: And I'm talking to the great Mark Schultz. Do you have any idea why I asked you to come here? Mark Schultz: No. John du Pont: No. Well, Mark, do you - do you have any idea who I am? Mark Schultz: No. No. John du Pont: Some rich guy calls you on the phone. I want the great Mark Schultz to come visit me. Well, I'm a - I'm a wrestling coach. And I have a deep love of the sport of wrestling. And I wanted to speak with you about your future. About what you hope to achieve. What do you hope to achieve, Mark? Mark Schultz: Well, I wanna be the best in the world. I wanna go to the Worlds and win gold. I wanna go to the '88 Olympics and win gold. John du Pont: Good. I'm proud of you. Are you getting the support that you need? Mark Schultz: What do you mean, sir? John du Pont: Well, you know how the soviets support their wrestlers. Mark Schultz: I do. John du Pont: Mark, we as a nation have failed to honor you. And that's a problem. Not just for you, but for our society. When we fail to honor that which should be honored, it's a problem. It's a canary in a coal mine. Do you bird-watch? Mark Schultz: Uh, no. John du Pont: You can learn a lot from birds. I'm an ornithologist. But more importantly, I am a patriot. And I want to see this country soar again. Mark Schultz: I want that too. John du Pont: I can see that.
