Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Ebenezer Scrooge:
Why do you walk the earth? Why'd you come to persecute me? And what is that great chain you wear?
Jacob Marley's Ghost:
I wear the chain I forged in life. I made it, link by link and yard by yard, while on Earth, and now I will never be rid of it, any more than you will ever be rid of yours!
Ebenezer Scrooge:
[shocked]
Mine?
Jacob Marley's Ghost:
It was as heavy and long as this seven Christmases ago. It's a terrible, ponderous chain you are making, Scrooge!
Ebenezer Scrooge:
Tell me more, Marley, but speak comfort to me!
Jacob Marley's Ghost:
I have none to give.
Ebenezer Scrooge:
None?
Jacob Marley's Ghost:
Comfort comes from other sources, Ebenezer Scrooge, and is given by other ministers than I to other kinds of men than you. When I lived, my spirit, like yours, never walked beyond the narrow limits of our counting house.
Ebenezer Scrooge:
But you were always a good man of business, Jacob.
Jacob Marley's Ghost:
Mankind should be our business, Ebenezer, but we seldom attend to it... as you shall see.
