  • Magda: What's to happen? Now that there is freedom in my country my people will read these books and be confused.
  • Dorothy Petrillo Zbornak: These books represent different ideas. While you're here there are two books I want you to read. The first one is Thomas Paine's Common Sense, I think you'll realize what I'm trying to say. The other is Vanna White's autobiography.
  • Magda: Why should I read that?
  • Dorothy Petrillo Zbornak: It's just a hell of a book.
  • Magda: Now the way it was we knew what to do. When there is one road no one gets lost.
  • Rose Nylund: Not so, back in St. Olaf...

  • Magda: Please don't hold it against me.
