or Mr. Jameson, and I won't punish Mr. Willis.

He's the only party to this incident who is still worthy of calling himself a bared man.

I'm going to recommend to the disciplinary committee that you be expelled, Mr. Sims.

You are a cover-up artist,
5
and you are a liar.
6
But not a snitch!
7
Excuse me?
8
No, I don't think I will.
9
Mr. Slade.
10
This is such a crock of shit.
11
Please watch your language, Mr. Slade.
12
You are in the Baird School, not a barracks.
13
Mr. Sims, I will give you one final opportunity to speak on that.
14
Mr. Sims doesn't want it.
15
He doesn't need to be labeled still worthy of being a Baird man.
16
What the hell is that?
17
What is your motto here?
18
Boys, inform on your classmates.
19
Save your hide.
20
Anything short of that, we're gonna burn you at the stake?
21
Well, gentlemen, when the shit hits the fan,
22
some guys run and some guys stay.
23
Here's Charlie facing the fire,
24
and there's George hiding in Big Daddy's pocket.
25
And what are you doing?
26
You're gonna reward George and destroy Charlie.
27
Are you finished, Mr. Slade?

No, I'm just getting warmed up.
29
I don't know who went to this place.
30
William Howard Taft, William Jennings Bride, William Terrell, whoever.
31
Their spirit is dead if they ever had one.
32
It's gone.
33
You're building a rat ship here.
34
A vessel for seagoing snitches.
35
And if you think you're preparing these minnows for manhood,
36
you better think again.
37
Because I say you are killing the very spirit this institution proclaims it instills.
38
What a sham.
39
What kind of a show are you guys putting on here today?
40
I mean, the only class in this act is sitting next to me.
41
And I'm here to tell you,
42
this boy's soul is intact.
43
It's non-negotiable.
44
You know how I know?
45
Someone here, and I'm not gonna say who, offered to buy it.
46
Only Charlie here wasn't selling.
47
Sir, you're out of order.
48
Out of order?
49
I show you out of order.
50
You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask.
51
I'd show you, but I'm too old.
52
I'm too tired.
53
I'm too fucking blind.
54
If I were the man I was five years ago,
55
I'd take a flamethrower to this place!
56
Out of order.
57
Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
58
I've been around, you know.
59
There was a time I could see, and I have seen...
60
Boys like these, younger than these,
61
their arms torn out, their legs ripped off.
62
But there is nothing like the sight of an amputated spirit.
63
There is no prosthetic for that.
64
You think you're merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Argon...
65
...with his tail between his legs,
66
but I say you are executing his soul!
67
And why?
68
Because he's not a bad man.
69
Bad men.
70
You hurt this boy, you're gonna be bad bums.
71
The lot of you.
72
And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, fuck you two!
73
Stand down, Mr. Slade.
74
I'm not finished.
75
As I came in here, I heard those words.
76
Cradle of leadership.
77
Well, when the bow breaks,
78
the cradle will fall, and it has fallen here.
79
It has fallen.
80
Makers are men.
81
Creators are leaders.
82
Be careful what kind of leaders you're producing here.
83
I don't know if Charlie's silence here today is right or wrong.
84
I'm not a judge or jury,
85
but I can tell you this.
86
He won't sell anybody out to buy his future.
87
And that, my friends, is called integrity.
88
That's called courage.
89
Now, that's the stuff leaders should be made of.
90
Now, I have come to the crossroads in my life.
91
I always knew what the right path was.
92
Without exception, I knew, but I never took it.
93
You know why?
94
It was too damn hard.
95
Now, Now, here's Charlie.
96
He's come to the crossroads.
97
He has chosen a path.
98
It's the right path.
99
It's a path made of principle that leads to character.
100
Let him continue on his journey.
101
You hold this boy's future in your hands, committee.
102
It's a valuable future.
103
Believe me, don't destroy it.
104
Protect it.
105
Embrace it.
106
It's going to make you proud one day, I promise you.

How's that the Paul Boyd?

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
