The trick . . .


Potter: [trying to copy Lawrence's snuffing a match with his fingers] Oooh! It damn well hurts! 

Lawrence: Certainly it hurts. 

Potter: Well, what's the trick, then?  

Lawrence: The trick, William Potter, is not minding that it hurts.

Lawrence of Arabia, dir. David Lean (1962)
