Quotes10

  • Danielle: Mama, I want a baby.
  • Antonia: How about a husband to go with it?
  • Danielle: No.
  • Boer Bas: I wanted to have a word.
  • Antonia: What about?
  • Boer Bas: About you and me. About marriage. I was thinking, you're a widow and my wife is dead. You are a good-looking woman. My sons need a mother.
  • Antonia: But, I don't need your sons.
  • Boer Bas: No?
  • Antonia: No.
  • Boer Bas: Don't you need a husband?
  • Antonia: What for?
  • Antonia: This is no time for Schopenhauer. This is important.
  • Antonia: Yes. It's time to die.
  • Antonia: She's got a point. Father was a dirty old man. Used to feel them up round the clock.
  • Antonia: [walking to mass] That wall's the Saturday night urinal. The stench on Sunday morning could bend nails. Ah, the nuns! They haven't gone extinct, yet.
  • Antonia: Some years ago you asked for my hand. You still can't have my hand. But, you can have the rest. After all these chaste years, I've got the urge again. Let's say once a week?
  • Boer Bas: Perhaps more often.
  • Thérèse (6): Isn't it terrible that nothing exists?
  • Antonia: That's why there's so much.
  • Boer Daan: So, so, so, so, the prodigal daughter's come back.
  • Antonia: Clever of you to notice.
  • Antonia: Nothing dies forever. Something always remains. A little something from which new things grow. So life begins, without knowing where it came from or why it exists.
  • Sarah: But why?
  • Antonia: Because life wants to live.
  • Sarah: Isn't there a heaven either?
  • Antonia: This is the only dance we dance.
