Sara (Józef's daughter) – Character Quotes

— Love is something that doesn't really exist. It's something that makes mercy disappear. It's like building a house and burning everything all around it. Love is listening at the door to hear if those are her shoes squeaking on the stairs. Love is when you whisper baby to a woman forty years old, when you watch her eating even though you can't swallow a thing... and when you can't fall asleep until you touch her. Love is when you're standing under a tree together and you wish it would fall over so you'd have to protect her.
— And when somebody wants to hurt her, you shield her with your body?
— No, then it's just a job.

Don't worry, I'll always protect you.

It didn't hurt at all. Not even for a moment. My mother told me that if you love the man you do it with it doesn't hurt at all the first time.

— I want you to do it again. To lay on me and to be inside me. I want to feel what a woman feels when making love with her man.
— I'm not your man.

Why can't a forty-year-old man love a sixteen-year-old girl?

I'm freezing out here. There are bandits and thieves all around me... They're about to rape me... I hope.

— You ordered them to hurt me, Dad. You said yourself that you don't forgive harm done to the family.
— Give me a break, that's what Italians say in low-budget movies about the mob.
— I do not forgive. I'm a gangster's daughter and it's in my blood.

— You can throw me out, but I'll come back tomorrow. You don't have to make love to me just let me stay.
— I'm throwing you out.
— I love you. I didn't know it was so easy. I'll be with you forever. I know I'll have your children.

— I'll never do anything stupid. I'll only listen to you... I'll do whatever you tell me to, just please don't go.
— Take off your clothes. I was kidding, go away.

— You're just like the other bastards that work for him!
— Did you think I wasn't?

— A woman knows who her man is.
— You're not a woman.
— But you'll make a woman out of me.

— These drawings are staying here.
— If I ever take them away I won't come back to you... but that won't happen because I believe in relationships — that last a lifetime.
— Whose lifetime?
— Even elephants love each other for years... and scientists have proven that whales...
— Do I look like a whale?
