Manuela:
I wish you'd stop circling me. It's like talking to a top!
Serafin:
I can tell you your past, your present and your future.
Manuela:
You don't have to tell me my future, I know my future.
Serafin:
Am I in it?
Manuela:
No!
Serafin:
Then you don't know your future.
Manuela:
For the last time, I do not love you! I know you find it hard to believe, but I do not love you! Will you go away now?
Serafin:
You know, it's not essential to love me to be in the troop. It helps but it's not essential.
Manuela:
Go away!
Serafin:
[
leaves to go out window] Fine. Good bye!
Manuela:
Not that way! You'll kill yourself.
Serafin:
You do care, Manuela!
Manuela:
No I don't!
Serafin:
Yes you do! You love me! You love me!
Serafin:
You know, it isn't essential for you to love me for you to join the troupe. It-it helps, but it isn't essential.
Serafin:
Boys, here is my last cigar. Divide it among you.
Serafin:
Senorita, don't marry that pumpkin.
Manuela:
Pumpkin!
Serafin:
Any man who lets you out of his sight is a pumpkin.
Manuela:
If I didn't laugh I should be very annoyed.
Serafin:
Don't tell me you've never longed for a prince instead of a pumpkin.
Serafin:
I know that underneath that prim exterior there are depths of emotion, romantic longings, unfulfilled dreams.
Manuela:
[
while hypnotized] Underneath this prim exterior, there are depths of emotion, romantic longings... Underneath this prim exterior, there are depths of emotion, romantic longings...
Serafin:
Manuela, you can't marry that man. You're not in love with him, you're in love with me.
Manuela:
The EGO! The CONCEIT!
Serafin:
You should try underplaying sometime. Very effective.
Serafin:
Do not anger Macoco. Do not bring down Macoco's wrath upon your head.
Manuela:
How could I have been so gullible? Why I should have known from the first moment I saw you on the stage that you know nothing about acting!
Serafin:
[
after Manuela smashes a painting over his head] You're overdoing this! You're being vindictive!
The Viceroy:
I must say Macoco, you're very satisfying! The other members of your profession whom I've met officially looked more like bookkeepers than pirates, but you - ooo hooo hooo - you fill the eye.
Serafin:
Thank you.
Serafin:
I believe a condemned man has a right to one last request.
The Viceroy:
Oh within reason - a visit from a loved one, a prayer, a beef steak.
Serafin:
[
standing by the noose] Usually for our opening I perform a rope trick, but tonight under the circumstances, I will skip the rope.
Manuela:
Why, it would mean the ruination of my complete life!
Macoco:
I'm very philanthropic now - I repaired the church belfry.
Serafin:
It's hard to kill an actor.
Aunt Inez:
Well, what are you? Some chicken thief or pick-purse?
Macoco:
The sound of my name was like thunder rolling in from the sea!
Manuela:
Someday Macoco is going to swoop down upon me like a chicken hawk and carry me away.
Serafin:
[
after tricking his troupe and stealing their last cigar] I was er... keeping it lit for you.
Aunt Inez:
[
after Manuela pretends to be hypnotized again] Oh, Manuela, not again!
