Col. Feroud:
Why don't you do both? Take the money and kill me too. Emir Hassan:
You want to die? Why do You want to die? Col. Feroud:
I only want to arrange a truce. Cease fire for 24 hours, so that Syrians and Frenchmen can sit together. Emir Hassan:
And what shall we discuss, the terms of our surrender? Col. Feroud:
We can try to settle our differences according to the dignity of man. Emir Hassan:
There is dignity in men who are willing to give their lives for what they believe in. Col. Feroud:
Men needn't die to prove their dignity. Emir Hassan:
You're asking me to surrender! Col. Feroud:
I'm asking you to consider your people. An effort must be made. We must make some effort! Otherwise, we're not civilized men. Perhaps we'll fail and the war will go on, but at least we will have tried. That's all I want. Emir Hassan:
Colonel, you are a fool. Col. Feroud:
I come to talk of peace and understanding and you call me a fool? Emir Hassan:
Yes, Colonel. I respect you, but you are a dreamer and a fool
