Minnie... When I am gone from here, others will come. And some of them, I hope not too many, will find themselves living with the same conflict in their hearts as I do.

Should you ever become acquainted with such a person, no matter how unpleasant and difficult they may be, I hope you will find it in you to give them the same friendship, strength and happiness that you have always given me.

That is... what I wanted to say to you, Minnie.

[He closes his eyes and remains in silence, awaiting her reply.]
