The movie version, yes.  I'm trying to remember if this specific line
was in the book as well. ( I know this is OT with regard to the thread,

I (sort of) agree with Cotty on this one.  I think Pentax would have
gladly abandoned the old lenses but realized that they didn't have the
market clout of Canon that would allow them to do that.  They took a
shot but had the fix ready.

It is by will alone I set my mind in  motion. It is by the juice of

that thoughts  acquire speed -  The lips acquire stains -  The stains
become a warning -  It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.
