A Wholesaler in Wines
- A Wholesaler in Wines: You rascal! I should have known! Cornudet - the revolutionist. The talker in cafés. The man who built the barricades to defend Rouen and ran away at the first sight of a German helmet. You rascal.
- Coach Driver: Here's some foot stoves for the ladies. You can open them when you get inside.
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Better than a husband to keep your feet warm.
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Only the French know how to eat. The Germans - did you ever see them eat?
- A Manufacturer: General von Hume. We served him Crêpe Suzette and he compared it to strudel.
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Strudel?
- The Wholesaler's Wife: At my house, when they dined with us they only asked for sauerkraut.
- The Countess de Breville: And you, have you noticed how the Germans eat?
- Elisabeth Rousset: I don't eat with the Germans, Madame.
- Jean Cornudet: You're a patriot.
- Elisabeth Rousset: I suppose we are all patriots, it's just that I've never had to eat with the Germans. Maybe the others were forced to do so.
- The Manufacturer's Wife: Well, if you never had anything to do with the Germans, how did you get permission to leave Rouen?
- Elisabeth Rousset: Oh, they were quite glad to let me go.
- Jean Cornudet: They asked you to leave?
- The Countess de Breville: What did you do?
- Elisabeth Rousset: I wouldn't eat with them.
- The Wholesaler's Wife: What are you doing?
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Nothing. Nothing, my dear. Just catching a bit of fresh air.
- The Wholesaler's Wife: Fresh air - at your age. Get back to bed at once!
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Yes, my dove.
- A Wholesaler in Wines: Anyone I know in back? These days one has to know ones fellow travelers - days of war, spies, traitors, even thieves. Whose back there? Who are you?
- Jean Cornudet: We may ask the same of you sir. Who are you?
- A Manufacturer: We're all respectable people up here.
- A Wholesaler in Wines: [referring to his intoxicated wife] She's not affected by the wine. No. No, it's just the expense of the champagne that's gone to her head.
