• Álvaro Jara : What you want is a great escape. Yes?

  Pablo Neruda : I won't play the fascists' game. I'll become their worst nightmare. In order to do that, I need to be a popular giant.

  Álvaro Jara : You can't do that.

  Pablo Neruda : I already have.

  Álvaro Jara : No, you can't. People would say you used this persecution to become a saint. That we were never actually oppressed. That we like to play the victim. That we like to suffer. But they're killing us, for real. Look. I only ask you to be a bit more humble. Good luck on your journey.
