- Varvara Nikitichna: You crossed everything out.
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: Well, just some minor things. For example, "the goat gave an inhuman squeal." That's a little too much.
- Varvara Nikitichna: So, what kind of squeal?
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: Just simply, "the goat squealed."
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: Vasily Ignatyich, sell it to me. It's too small for you anyway.
- Vasily Ignatyevich Kharitonov - Buzykin's Neighbour: Palych, I can't. Sorry, but I can't. I'd give it to you for nothing. My wife saw it. She'll think we sold it to drink.

- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: "For whom would nature exist with no one to behold her?" Question mark. "With no one to feel the swirling snow blowing ever colder?" Question mark. "No one to fear the thunder with its mighty roar?" Question mark. "No one to greet the wind blowing from afar?" Question mark. "No one to hear the waves lapping at the shore?" Question mark. "No one to scan the sky to spy the falling star?"
- Alla Mikhaylovna Yermakova - Buzykin's Mistress: Question mark.
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: "For no one... for herself... for a lark." What? What is it?
- Georgy Nikolayevich Verigin: Look, Andrey Palych, in what shape is "Fragmented Moon"?
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: In fragments.
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: I'll try.
- Georgy Nikolayevich Verigin: Uh-huh.
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: I'll have to work at night.
- Georgy Nikolayevich Verigin: Uh-huh. Sure, why don't you? It'll keep you away from chasing women. We're too old for that.
- Andrey Pavlovich Buzykin: What women?
- Georgy Nikolayevich Verigin: Andrey Palych, Leningrad is small.
