Some people find it irritating.
Well, I find it irritating that some people find it irritating.
I think it could be a little more discreet.
WHAT ABOUT my cup of tea?
About that young engineer who is working with you.
Talents have been set in motion.
Can I expect a lesson in morality?
Common sense.
I mean I do not care if you decide to go to bed
with choirboys or cocker spaniels,
but it would be wiser to keep his private life secret.
Is this an official warning?
Friendly advice, nothing more.
I mean ... first things first.
What we are doing here, and especially what you are doing here,
It has a direct and decisive influence on the progress of the war.
Well ... a very young engineer
It occupies a second place to that, no doubt. Well ... a very young engineer
It occupies a second place to that, no doubt.
I thought you said the rules are only important in cricket.
Oh, it's so absurd this modern obsession with sexual satisfaction!
Passion is terribly overrated, in my opinion.
One is happiest when sex is a vaguely remembered pleasure,
as climbing apple trees or build sandcastles.
But it will not expect you to agree with that!
Well, like everyone else, I can only speak from personal experience.
I've been happily married for over twenty years and am glad to say that
Passion has never played a significant role in our relationship.
You can rely more on understanding and companionship.
Passion is always ... ephemeral. You can rely more on understanding and companionship.
Passion is always ... ephemeral.
Or maybe a brief moment of passion is worth more
twenty years of companionship without events.
I did not say that elapsed uneventfully.
Anyway, we do not talk about me, talk about you.
Yes. I heard that you are not very good.
- And that has to do? - Nothing. He was changing the subject.
Ah ... a lot of people, as administrators and military,
Bletchly regarded as the hotbed of anarchy and indiscipline.
They pray for an excuse to remedy.
- But just say the malicious. - Maybe.
What good is having a system ...
giving authority to people who do not deserve it?
You say that I complain. Holy God! Of course I am complaining!
He was not doing anything. You know, like me.
No one understood what the crux of the problem.
This was not a matter of more things, more money ...
We needed new ideas, electronics and industry.
And you were doing absolutely nothing about it.
If I had not dealt with Mr. Churchill,
if it had gone through the usual circle of appropriate channels,
we would be stuck, idly, without getting anywhere.
You know these people what Churchill responded to my letter? He knows?
"Make sure they have everything they want with utmost priority".
- I know, I know. - That's what he wrote. "Run now"
I know, and I'm not saying you do things wrong.
I'm just trying to explain, with such unorthodox methods, I know, and I'm not saying you do things wrong.
I'm just trying to explain, with such unorthodox methods,
the cause considerable annoyance.
All that matters is the work we do. Differences of opinion,
the character differences should not count on this.
- True, but count. - But they should not.
You can not go through life ignoring the effect it has on others,
- You can try. - Okay, I'll give you an example.
A few minutes ago he asked me about my health. - You can try. - Okay, I'll give you an example.
A few minutes ago he asked me about my health.
Suppose I say I have a fatal disease,
and it left me a year, more or less.
Suppose I'm broken, broken.
Suppose I open my heart and say I do not want to die, I suppose broken, shattered.
Suppose I open my heart and say I do not want to die,
I'm scared and ... desperate.
Well, I do not think you received welcome such a revelation.
I'm sure you would find distressing, embarrassing, Well, I do not think you received welcome such a revelation.
I'm sure you would find distressing, embarrassing,
and somewhat inconsiderate.
And so, being aware of your feelings as mine,
it would seem that would be the right time and right ... And so, being aware of your feelings as mine,
it would seem that would be the right time and right ...
I ... moderase my answer.
Do you dying is being?
Similarly, or so it seems to me,
when you reveal the nature of their sexuality,
You can not afford to ignore the effect it will have on people.
Fear, for example ...
when people are asked to accept something you do not understand.
O ... anger,
when you reveal without shame,
It is contrary to everything we have always believed.
And pain ...
It will cause a lot of pain.
Not himself, though necessarily concern me, anyway,
but ... ... people who are close to you ...
all you want.
Pain ... a lot of pain.
I think I'll have a drink after all.
You come with me?
No thanks.
Your friend Wittgenstein
once he wrote something that impressed me deeply.
I sat, you know, with this book in hand
and I memorized what he had written.
This is what he said:
"We feel ... that even if ... all ...
science questions to be answered reach,
life problems continue ... without being resolved. "
Who?
It's me.
Alan, honey! It's me.
Alan, honey!
Oh, you're so silly, why do not you tell me you were coming?
He was not sure he could do. I did not want to disappoint.
It's a wonderful surprise. I'm very happy.
Oh, look at that hideous jacket! I'd like you take care of her.
How long can you stay? Do not tell me you have to go in the morning.
Ah, yes ... you may have to do.
Does not matter. Do not think about it.
I have completely redecorated guest room.
Beautiful curtains, patterned.
Mom ... listen, I have something to tell you.
Something nice?
No, I'm afraid not.
You had not come here to tell me something nice. What is it?
Well ... I have a problem.
What kind of problem?
A serious problem.
Tell me.
Well ... it's so ... hard to explain.
Does it have anything to do with money?
Do not.
Look ... you know that I have never much interested women.
People in your class so rarely is.
My class?
What do you mean, my class?
People who spend life with my head buried in books.
It has nothing to do with it.
What is it then?
I...
I have no sexual feelings towards women.
Probably that's why people seem so divorced these days. I have no sexual feelings towards women.
Probably that's why people seem so divorced these days.
Mom ... please listen. Would you please try to understand?
I'm doing the best I can.
Police have discovered that I have an affair with a man.
- A man? - If.
I am sorry.
There is no other way to tell.
You mean a fag? Do you think you will get out in the newspapers?
I do not know ... Maybe.
Thank God, your father is not alive. I was so proud of you!
Have you always ...? I mean...
- Have you always been like this? - If.
Always? - Have you always been like this? - If.
Always?
Yes.
But what about that girl you were engaged? What was his name? Pat.
