[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] 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.
