The Princess - Death
- The Princess - Death: Are you in love with this idiot?
- Heurtebise: What if I am?
- The Princess - Death: You have no right to love in *any* world.
- Heurtebise: Nor do you.
- The Princess - Death: What?
- Heurtebise: You can't escape the rules.
- The Princess - Death: I order you to be quiet!
- Heurtebise: You're in love with Orphée and you don't know how to handle it.
- The Princess - Death: Shut up!
- Heurtebise: Do you have orders?
- The Princess - Death: What did you say?
- Heurtebise: I asked you if you had orders.
- The Princess - Death: When I carry out my orders, I expect mine to be carried out.
- Heurtebise: That's exactly why I ask if you have orders.
- The Princess - Death: You dare to ask?
- Heurtebise: If you had orders, your butchers would have completed their task.
- Orphée: You are all-powerful.
- The Princess - Death: In your eyes. Here Death takes on innumerable forms. Young and old, they receive orders.
- Orphée: And if you disobeyed those orders? They can't kill you. It is you who kill.
- The Princess - Death: What they do is worse.
- Orphée: Where do the orders come from?
- The Princess - Death: They are sent back and forth by so many sentinels - like the tom-toms of your African tribes, the echoes of your mountains, the wind whispering through your trees.
- Orphée: I will go to he who gives those orders.
- The Princess - Death: My poor love, he exists nowhere. Some say he thinks of us. Others, that we are his thoughts. Others say he sleeps and that we are his dream - his bad dream.
- The Princess - Death: Will you obey me?
- Orphée: I will obey you.
- The Princess - Death: Whatever I ask?
- Orphée: Whatever you ask.
- The Princess - Death: Even if I condemned you? If I tortured you?
- Orphée: I belong to you and I will never leave you.
- The Princess - Death: Never again.
- Orphée: A miracle will happen.
- The Princess - Death: Miracles only happen in your world.
- Orphée: All worlds are moved by lovers.
- The Princess - Death: In our world no one is moved.
- The Princess - Death: Do you know who I am?
- Jacques Cégeste: I do.
- The Princess - Death: Say it.
- Jacques Cégeste: You are my Death.
- The Princess - Death: Good. From now on you will serve me.
- Jacques Cégeste: I will serve you.
- The Princess - Death: You will obey my orders.
- Jacques Cégeste: I will obey your orders.
- The Princess - Death: Excellent.
- The Princess - Death: Transmit.
- Jacques Cégeste: Jupiter gives wisdom to those he would lose. I repeat. Jupiter gives wisdom to those he would lose.
- The Princess - Death: This is the first time I have almost understood the notion of time. Waiting must be frightful for men.
- Jacques Cégeste: I no longer remember.
