From The Pigeon by John Galsworthy

45 sec

But we in whom something moves-- like that flame, Monsieur, that cannot keep still--we others--we are not many--that must have motion in our lives, do not let them make us prisoners, with their theories, because we are not like them--it is life itself they would enclose! I ask your pardon; I am talking. If I could smoke, Monsieur!
