Marcel:
At six or earlier in summer, you can hear birds sing. So many... As numerous as the headlines. They send messages all around us. They're easy to hear if you don't read the paper. But man has invented a terrible silence, building it stone by stone, and no longer hears the messages around him. If he could hear them, he'd be a little encouraged. He's not the only one to speak. The only one who keeps the world turning. Have you heard a nightingale?
Bank Representative:
A few times.
Marcel:
Lying in bed?
Bank Representative:
No. I live in town. But your children won't be able to live off nightingales. Though they are eaten.
Zero:
Yes, they are eaten. In pat?, or skewered, which is even better.
Marcel:
By then your chemical products will have killed them.
Bank Representative:
I'm not in chemicals.
Marcel:
Your brothers are. You give them money so they can destroy whales or dump mercury in the lake. Do you eat fish from the lake?
Bank Representative:
I do indeed. These problems are exaggerated. The fish can adapt to changes, like us.
Marcel:
The fish may adapt, but not your organism. And when your brain's filled with mercury, all shrunk up?
Bank Representative:
You accuse me of everything?
Marcel:
Yes. You murder whales and destroy the ozone. You grow pigs with extra chops and run highways through beet fields, and make penicillin calves and blind hens.
Bank Representative:
I think you're changing the subject.
Marcel:
Did you know whales love music?
Bank Representative:
No. But I like music a lot.
Marcel:
So what? Nobody murders you for it.
