  Phillip Ainley : [to his students]  This is our last hour together. I'm not going to keep you for it. But I'll remember every one of your faces for the rest of my life... and I rather imagine you'll remember mine... because we've gone on a journey together. There were times when I lost my way, and somewhere along the road you and others became the teacher, and I the student. You taught me that as long as there is one man without an answer, all men are without an answer. You taught me that only he who chooses to be alone, is alone. And so even though our small journey is over and we go our separate ways, we'll never really be apart. To the end of time, we'll carry in out hearts the things that we've shared together. Now I'm sure someone somewhere said that much better than I, probably Shakespeare... surely the Bible. But I think it's something that the man should say at last to himself. As you know, I teach English, but there are some things very hard to say in it. Goodbye is one of them. So if you don't mind, I'll use my first year Spanish. Vaya con Dios: go with God. Let's all go with God.

  [the students all rise to say goodbye to Phillip]
