The journalist, Walter Carelli, went to interview the Argentine writer,
Jorge Luis Borges.

When his interview had been completed, they began to talk about the language
that exists beyond words, and about the human being's great capacity to
understand others.

"I will give you an example," said Borges. And he began to speak in a
strange language. Then he stopped and asked the journalist what he had been
saying.

Before Carelli could respond, the photographer who was with him said: "It's
the 'Our Father.'"

"Exactly," said Borges. "I was reciting it in Finnish."
