JOHN FOWLES
The Magus

“The human race is unimportant. It is the self that must not be betrayed."

"I suppose one could say that Hitler didn't betray his self."

"You are right. He did not. But millions of Germans did betray their selves. That was the tragedy. Not that one man had the courage to be evil. But that millions had not the courage to be good.”

THE GIANT
I will tell you three things. If I tell them to you and they come true, then will you believe me?

COOPER
Who’s that?

THE GIANT
Think of me as a friend.

COOPER
Where do you come from?

THE GIANT
The question is, where have you gone?  The first thing I will tell you is, there’s a man in a smiling bag.

COOPER
Man in a smiling bag.

THE GIANT
Second thing is, the owls are not what they seem. Third thing is, without chemicals he points.

COOPER
What do these things mean?

THE GIANT
This is all I am permitted to say. Give me your ring. I will return it to you when you find these things to be true.

THE GIANT takes the ring from COOPER.

THE GIANT
We want to help you.

COOPER
Who’s we?
