TODD: I, I didn't do it. I didn't write a poem.
KEATING: Mr. Anderson thinks that everything inside of him is worthless and embarrassing. Isn't that right, Todd? Isn't that your worst fear? Well, I think you're wrong. I think you have something inside of you that is worth a great deal.
(Keating walks up to the blackboard and begins to write.)
KEATING: "I sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world." W. W. Uncle Walt again. Now, for those of you who don't know, a yawp is a loud cry or yell. Now, Todd, I would like you to give us a demonstration of a barbaric "yawp." Come on. You can't yawp sitting down. Let's go. Come on. Up.
(Todd reluctantly stands and follows Keating to the front.)
KEATING: You gotta get in "yawping" stance.
TODD: A yawp?
KEATING: No, not just a yawp. A barbaric yawp.
TODD (quietly): Yawp.
KEATING: Come on, louder.
TODD (quietly): Yawp.
KEATING: No, that's a mouse. Come on. Louder.
TODD: Yawp.
