Mr. Savva, do you like to tear up ant-hills?
SAVVA
I don't know. I never tried.
FRIAR
I like it. Do you like to fly kites?
SAVVA
It's a long time since I tried to. I used to like it very much.
SPERANSKY (patiently awaiting the end of their conversation)
Swallows! What good is their flying to me? Anyhow, maybe swallows don't exist either, and it's all a dream.
