• Robert : You can't speak the language, can you?

  Elin, Ulrikas dotter : Nah, not now. But, the minute I land in America, then I shall.

  Robert : You mean you'll speak it the minute you land?

  Elin, Ulrikas dotter : Ya.

  Robert : Well, but who told you that?

  Elin, Ulrikas dotter : It was my Uncle Danjel. But, you must study it because you don't live in the spirit. For us, it's not the same. Studying won't be necessary.

  Robert : Can that - really be true?

  Elin, Ulrikas dotter : Do you think Danjel lies?

  Robert : Nah.

  Elin, Ulrikas dotter : All the faithful, as they go ashore, shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, like in the Bible, the Apostles, the first Pentecost. And they will be reborn with faith in Jesus Christ and also they'll know how to speak the American language the minute they land. Haven't you read the Acts of the Apostles?
