Mrs. Rasmussen
- Lily Czepanek: My father was a good man. Every night - I read to him - from this Bible.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: The Lamentations of Job, no doubt.
- Lily Czepanek: No. The Song of Solomon. He loved it best.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: I don't remember the Song of Solomon. But, knowing your father I imagine there was something dirty in it.
- Lily Czepanek: A Song of Songs is beautiful.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: A figure like that will get you into trouble, if you're not careful. You'll bear watching.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: My precious brother, I didn't even like him, dies. And leaves me his daughter - with nine petticoats and a Bible. Does he leave any money? Huh! Not a pfennig!
- Mrs. Rasmussen: I says, she sometimes takes a little rum with her tea. And I said I see no harm if you care to send her some. And, it's the very best kind. It comes from Jamaica! I suppose you never heard of Jamaica.
- Lily Czepanek: No, Tante Rasmussen.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: It's a place in Asia Minor.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: I warned you. I've appealed to your better nature. I've scolded you. I've - I've even beaten you. And all to no avail. Now there's nothing left, but to put you out.
- Lily Czepanek: Please, maybe I was wrong. But, if you let me explain...
- Mrs. Rasmussen: I'm not interested in the details of your sin.
- Lily Czepanek: Sin? Oh, it wasn't sin.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: Get out! Get out.
- Richard Waldow: I don't know where else to look.
- Mrs. Rasmussen: Have you tried the gutter? That's where girls like her - end up.
