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.
