Quotes14

  • Viridiana: I'd prefer not to see the outside world again.
  • Viridiana: I know my own weakness, and whatever I do will be humble. But, however little it is, I want to do it alone.
  • Don Jaime: You're spoiling me. What will I do when I'm alone again?
  • Viridiana: You choose to be alone.
  • [first lines]
  • Mother Superior: Sister Viridiana. Your uncle sent word that he can't come to see you take your vows.
  • Viridiana: Very well, Mother.
  • Mother Superior: You seem unconcerned.
  • Viridiana: I hardly know him. I only met him once, years ago.
  • Mother Superior: He invites you to visit him.
  • Viridiana: I'd rather not leave the convent.
  • Mother Superior: I'm afraid he's in poor health. He's your only relative. You should bid him farewell before taking your vows. You will never see him again.
  • Viridiana: Mother Superior ordered me to come.
  • Don Jaime: Do I mean so little to you that she had to order you to come?
  • Viridiana: Frankly, yes. I'm not a good liar, Uncle. I respect you and I'm grateful for your material support. But beyond that...
  • Don Jaime: No affection.
  • Viridiana: None.
  • Rita: I saw you in your nightgown.
  • Viridiana: What? Is that true?
  • Rita: Yes, Yes, I saw you.
  • Moncho: Don't listen. She's a little liar.
  • Rita: It's true! It's true! When she was dressing, her hairpins fell out, and she picked them up.
  • Viridiana: How did you see me?
  • Rita: From the terrace.
  • Viridiana: It's wicked to spy on people. You shouldn't do that.
  • Moncho: Don't be afraid, miss. Shall I guide your hand? Give it a pull.
  • Viridiana: No, I can't.
  • Don Jaime: We must do something special tonight as a farewell.
  • Viridiana: [grabs an apple offered by Jorge and takes a bite] Whatever you wish.
  • Don Jaime: I'd like to ask you an innocent favor, but one that means a lot to me.
  • Viridiana: Today I can refuse you nothing.
  • Don Jaime: So you'll do what I request?
  • Viridiana: You have only to ask.
  • [takes another bite of the apple]
  • Don Jaime: You're so much like your aunt, even in the way you walk.
  • Viridiana: You've told me before.
  • Don Jaime: There! Even your voice is like hers.
  • Don Jaime: I had to force you. It was the only way to have you in my arms.
  • Viridiana: You're lying.
  • Don Jaime: No, it's true. I made you mine while you slept.
  • Viridiana: Hail Mary, full of grace. And blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
  • Jorge: How can you enjoy living like this and spending so much time alone?
  • Viridiana: I'm not like you. You have your wife.
  • Jorge: She's not my wife. I don't need anyone's blessing to live with a woman.
  • Viridiana: If you must come again, please know first and wait till I tell you to enter.
  • Viridiana: Behold the handmaid of the Lord. Be it done unto me.
