Mr. Ashton : Say, where'd you get all the material?
Juan : The people give them, Senor.
Mr. Ashton : What for?
Juan : A man, he gives wood... bricks. In time, what does he get? A chapel... a place where his children can receive the sacraments. To these men, for their children to have faith, it is important.
Mr. Ashton : Is that why you're here?
Juan : To me, it is insurance. To me, life is here on this earth. I cannot see further, so I cannot believe further. But, if they are right about the hereafter, I have paid my insurance, Senor.
