Ricardo Montalban: Brother Pedro, Merchant

Quotes 

• Brother Pedro : Why do you turn away, my son?

  Guillermo : I cannot beg from you, Brother Pedro; you - you're as poor as I.

  Brother Pedro : [smiles]  No, no, I think perhaps I am even *poorer* than you.

• Guillermo : Look! He carries a golden bell.

  Brother Pedro : [chuckles]  No - not gold. It is cheap brass.

  Guillermo : But you clutch it so tightly. Surely it must be worth something.

  Brother Pedro : It is not the bell that has value, but the song that it sings. I ring it to remind others to thank God for their blessings, and to share those gifts with others.

• Brother Pedro : As you open your hands, open your heart.
