Get out
Caprice, please, Renzo
No, it's bad enough that you let that thing into our home
But I won't stand here and let him ridicule us
Like talking him is gonna get us nowhere
No, I won't let him use his power over us to make me feel any smaller or more trapped than I am
He's good
If he wasn't, think about where we'd be
Showing evil grace doesn't make you good or brave, it makes you stupid
Did you not hear the disgust in his voice
It's like gunfire, and the way that he looks at us
I don't look at you like you're anything
That is exactly my point
Answer me this
Everything that they've taught you at school, at home, in the Blackshirts
Do you believe we are lesser than you
When you look at Bianca, a girl, a cripple, a Jew, do you think she is beneath you
I
Well
It's...it's what I was taught
But do you believe it
I don't know
Well, I know
Have you ever thought that people could change

No, I don't believe people like you can change
For all the evils I've seen, I've been persecuted
Even though you're silent, we don't sleep nights, knowing you could denounce us at any time at all
Five thousand lire, the reward for reporting Jews in hiding
Doesn't that sound nice, Renzo

You could search inside yourself a million times over for goodness, compassion, but never find anything at all
You have no concept, no picture in your head about being the other
Not fit, not right
Don't try to understand because you never will
You never want to
You never could
