Quotes 

• Florentine : Ursula?

  Ursula : [Lounging in her underwear]  What is it?

  Florentine : Have you gone mad? What if someone comes in?

  Ursula : There's no one here. Everyone's gone to the Fiesta.

  Florentine : You never know. A visitor could arrive.

  Ursula : Then he'll have something worth remembering.

• Florentine : What are you doing there, Ursula?

  Ursula : Taking a shower.

  Florentine : But that's the servants' shower!

  Ursula : So what? It works.

• Lambert : Are you afraid?

  Ursula : Yes. I'm afraid of disappointing you.

  Lambert : I'll take the risk.

  Ursula : I'm not what you think.

  Lambert : I don't think anything.

  Ursula : Yes you do. You think I'm a woman.

  Lambert : Aren't you a woman?

  Ursula : Don't mock me.

• Ursula : You used to be more fun. Remember Biarritz? All the boys courted you. You really had your way with them. I was still as flat as a fish and I admired you.

• Ursula : Do you think I'm having a good time in this hole?

• Ursula : Don't kill this little creature, Lamberto. Don't kill my pig. Don't kill him, please. He's our little friend, I love him. No! No!

• Lambert : I love you. I love you, my little proud animal. I love your body. I love your heat. I love you to death. I love you to death.

  Ursula : I've waited so long for these words...

  Lambert : We must part.

  Ursula : No.

  Lambert : Yes, Ursula. Before we spoil it all.

  Ursula : No, no! Never, Lamberto! Oh, I love you. I love you. Don't ever leave me. I love you...

• Ursula : If that's for me, I hate champagne.

• Ursula : Let go! Leave me alone! You're a sick old man! You can be sure I'll tell Florentine everything! Dirty old man! Shame on you! Trying to exploit your niece! I wondered what a satyr looked like. I've got one in the family. My Aunt's husband, no less! She loves you. I even forgot you're my guardian. Some guardian! Are you listening? Lamberto should have killed you the other day! But he will!

  Comte Miguel de Ribera : Little bitch! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!

• Ursula : Is it fun to make love? Hey, I'm talking to you!

  Florentine : If you hadn't taken a shower, I'd have cooled you off myself.

  Ursula : At school I used to think of love very theoretically. But lately... Maybe it's the weather.

• Ursula : I've tried to be reasonable for 3 weeks now, it hasn't worked. I can think of nothing else. I want him to kiss me. You can understand that, can't you?

• Florentine : I've never been with any man other than Miguel.

  Ursula : You've made a real mistake then.

  Florentine : You're impossible!

  Ursula : Because I see things as they are? You chose to live a lie and ruined it all.

• Ursula : You could start over.

  Florentine : You forget my age. I'm not young anymore.

  Ursula : I'd like to be as beautiful as you are

• Florentine : I no longer dare to look in the mirror.

  Ursula : You're crazy! Look at yourself! You're young, you're beautiful. Look at your body.

• Ursula : In real fights are the bulls bigger?

  Florentine : Much bigger.

  Lambert : That's not a bull, it's a heifer.

  Florentine : But, it charges like a bull.

  Lambert : Cows fight as well as bulls. Sometimes they're even more dangerous. They charge with their eyes wide-open.

• Ursula : I wanted to tell you that I've never had a lover. Not that I didn't want one.

• Ursula : It's not too honest what we just did. Sinning with awareness of evil isn't too bad. One can atone. As long as one doesn't lose one's awareness of evil.

  Lambert : Come.

• Ursula : Please let's go on.

  Lambert : It's madness.

  Ursula : Yes, it's madness.

• Ursula : [Last lines]  Tell me you'll never leave me. Not even for an hour, not even for a minute. Swear it.

  Lambert : I swear it.

  Ursula : Not even for a minute.
