Faith: You are here.
Peter: Yes, I am here, and very real. God! I'm trying to think — there's this poem by, um, Goethe? … yeah, Goethe, and its about two people come from different places, but they hear the same bird singing…
Faith: "perhaps the same bird echoed through both of us yesterday, separate, in the evening"†
Peter: That's it. Exactly.
Faith: Wow. [pauses, gazing into his eyes] Yeah … It was Rilke.
Peter: Rilke? [she nods] Oh well, same country... how'd you know?
Faith: I could tell you some things. †: Faith here quotes Rilke's "You Who Never Arrived", as translated by Stephen Mitchell
