Patch Adams (3/10) Movie CLIP - Patch Earns His Nickname (1998) HD

PATCH: May I come in?

ARTHUR: If you bend your medial collateral ligaments,

place one talus in front of another I don't see where you'd have a problem.

Of course, if there were a news story covering this event the headline might read,

Small Brain Enters Room.

PATCH: Fingers, what's the answer?

ARTHUR: You're another one of those bright young fellows who always know the right answer.

Is that it? Welcome to real life.

[MUSIC] How many do you see?

PATCH: There are 4 fingers, Arthur.

ARTHUR: No. Look at me.

PATCH: What?

ARTHUR: You're focusing on the problem.

If you focus on the problem you can't see the solution.

Never focus on the problem.

Look at me. How many do you see?

Look beyond the fingers. How many do you see?

PATCH: Eight.

ARTHUR: Eight's a good answer.

Let's see what no one else sees.

See what everyone else chooses not to see out of fear of conformity and laziness.

See the whole world anew each day.

The truth is you're well on the way.

If you didn't see something here besides a crazy,

bitter old man you wouldn't have come in the first place.

PATCH; What do you see when you look at me, Arthur?

ARTHUR: You fixed my cup.

I'll see you around. Patch. [MUSIC]
