Sam—It is if we can stick to it.
Jennie—I don’t believe none of us could—not for a whole year.
Minerva—We can if we love them enough to really try. Will you do it?
Sam—All right, I’m game.
Bill—So am I.
Jennie—I’ll—has it got to be what you hate the very worst?
Bill—Of course, it ain’t no good to promise something easy. Anyone could do that.
Minerva—And it will show whether you love them enough to sac-to sacer-sacerfice ourselves for them.
