"White guy, man, you know what?" "I'm here about the job?" "And what job is that?" " Maybe I am on the wrong place?" " Well you might be." "It depends..." "On what?" "On what or not you are in the right place que buscas o no." "Are... are you the guy I am supposed to see?" "I have to go?" "Oh, I don't know." "Who told you that?" "Some guy I met in the bar." "Who?" "Where?" "When?" "The other day." "You will have to do better than that." "He gave me this here... the slip" "He said that you were looking for somebody with a... special kind of talent" "Do you mind if i smoke?" "It's your life" "Thanks" "What guy , Which bar?" "Freedos." "It's on Sixth Street." "You go there a lot, do you?" "Sometimes..." "You been drunken?" "No, why?" "Well, sometimes you and these men don't need to take a crack into." "Wizzy." "Will you... working anywhere now?" "You think I would be here if I worked?" "!" "Why aren't you working?" "There's ain't no jobs." "Maybe you drink too much." "Maybe you don't drink enough." "Have you done any time?" "..." "That's a stupid question!" "What for?" "..." "Drunk and disorderly." "Burglary." "Grand theft auto." "I was a minor." "Assault." "That's enough." "Three times." "A loser..." "Habitual..." "Married?" "Yeah." "Kids?" "Have you got any kids?" "That's why you want the job, Isn't it?" "For your family." "I got a boy and a girl." "What other family you got?" "No brothers?" "Why are you asking me all these questions?" "Well, the family thing can be kinda touchy." "Sometimes they can be   a real pain in the ass, as you can imagine." "Specially Brothers.." "Wizzy." "I have one but He is dead." "How did he die?" "Vietnam." "He blew his brains out ten days after he got back." "Oh, really?" "That kind of thing run in your family?" "Death?" "Suicide." "Hey, I will tell you what..." "Come with me." "Oh, I am sorry." "I thank you very much for coming." "I am very pleased that you ..." "My God!" "What's the matter?" "Excuse me." "Please..." "Well, May I ask your name?" "Raphael." "Raphael..." "It's very beautiful name." "It's unfortunate we..." "we are meeting in this somber, dreary circumstances." "All we have here is... a little bit of shadow-play." "May I offer you some refreshment?" "Let's have a drink." "Tell me" "Are you afraid to die?" "Are you?" "No..." "Not now" "No, I am not afraid to die." "I regard death as now, a sort of necessary metamorphosis" "Perhaps the more painful the death, more..." "Well, it is a kind of refinement." "See, there's pain when we come into the world at birth" "So it's fitting there should be, pain at the end of it." "It's sort of a transfiguration, the completion of a... the completion of a... equation" "Have you ever seen any woman giving birth?" "No." "Well, her face is twisted." "It's full of sweat and anguish." "But strangely punctuated by... joy..." "You know, in someways Raphael, I..." "I feel kinship, I feel that we are the same mind..." "Watching a painful death can be a great inspiration for those who... who are not dying." "So that they can see how brave" "we can be when it's time to go" "It is the final measure of bravery to stand up to death" "It's exquisite anguish." "And" "I am sorry." "When... when death finally, comes and... pays us it's final, visit... we... we then can bid him welcome." "It seems to me now  that the closer that  one can come to death in life  makes the passage into death  allover easy." "And it also leaves behind the greatest gift, that anyone can give another, which is  the courage to face death." "And that's the greatest contribution that anyone can... let's put... give another." "Anyway ..." "How much will I be payed for that?" "Well, actually I am trying to be realistic" "I thought that depends on..." "How willing you are..." "How brave you are..." "Well, does the more you are able to withstand spiritually and physically... then the more money will be paid to you." "You know, it's always..." "I mean it's   really insulting to put a price on life." "But if we have to render unto Caesar, the things that are Caesars ... and render unto God the things that are Gods." "then..." "I'd say 50,000 $" "I'll pay you some of it right now." "What if I take off?" "You know, I spent most of life developing an instinct" "An instinct about people."
