"Listen, listen, my name is Harry Caul. Can you hear me?
Don't be afraid. I know you don't know who I am, but I
know you. There isn't much to say about myself. I...I was
very sick when I was a boy, I was paralyzed in my left
arm and my left leg. I couldn't walk for six months. One
doctor said that I would probably never walk again. My
mother...my mother used to lower me into a hot bath. It
was therapy. One time the door bell rang, and she went
down to answer. I started sliding down. I could feel the
water. It started to come into my chin and into my nose.
And when I woke up, my body was all greasy from the holy
oil she used to put on my body. I remember being
disappointed I survived. When I was five, my father took
me to a friend of his, and for no reason at all I hit him
right in the stomach. with all my strength. He died a
year later. He'll kill you if he gets a chance. I'm not
afraid of death. I am afraid of murder."
