Helen and Dick are talking about the previous article.
H:I don't understand how people can think Dr. Kevorkian is doing the right thing.
D:Well, helping people die in dignity is not that bad, is it?
H:Don't you know? Where there is life, there is hope.
D:Come on. Be realistic. Those people who want to die are suffering. It's better that they go quickly and painlessly.
H:All you men have no hearts.
D:And all you women have no brains.
海伦和迪克正在讨论前面那篇文章。
海伦：我真搞不懂人们怎么会认为凯渥肯医生所做的事情是正当的。
迪克：呃，帮助人死得有尊严不是件坏事，是不是？
海伦：你难道不知道吗？留着青山在，不怕没柴烧。
迪克：算了吧。想法要实际点。那些寻死的人饱受折磨。还是让他们不要受到痛苦快快地死去比较好。
海伦：你们这些男人都是铁石心肠。
迪克：而你们这些女人都没脑筋。
