Keating stands on his desk.
John Keating: Why do I stand up here? Anybody?
Charlie Dalton: To feel taller!
John Keating: No! [dings a bell with his foot] Thank you for playing, Mr. Dalton. I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.
— Dead Poets Society (1989), written by Tom Schulman
The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Teacher. Today’s suggestion by @bradriddell.
Trivia: The draft that writer Tom Schulman sent out to the studios was his first one.
Dialogue On Dialogue: Robin Williams took the role because he wished he’d had a teacher like Mr. Keating. Don’t we all!
