- Guillaume: [after spanking Suzanne's behind] Don't pout. Its was just a joke.
- Suzanne: I don't like jokes in bad taste.
- Guillaume: If I had good taste, I wouldn't like you.
- Suzanne: Well, what counts is that you like me.
- Guillaume: I'm beginning to wonder.
- Suzanne: If you don't, there are plenty of others who do.
- Guillaume: Pimply-faced kids.
- Suzanne: Not at all. As good as you. Better, even.
- Guillaume: [to Bertrand] The girl's no dummy. She can hold her own.
- Guillaume: I've been trying to ditch her for two weeks. Sure, her body's not bad, but she has my mother's name. That gets me.
- Suzanne: We had some really great times, didn't we? That's what counts. I can always find money. I just have to look for it.
- Suzanne: You're the only one I can stand. You're a real louse, but we understand each other. Other guys just want to sleep with you, and then it's "so long."
- Guillaume: How's Sophie?
- Bertrand: You're always with her.
- Guillaume: Just to piss the other one off. Is she sulking?
- Bertrand: Suzanne? A bit. She's entitled.
- Guillaume: Good. The easy-looking ones are murder. It drags on and on. Anyway, I think she's about ready now, don't you?
- Bertrand: Yes, maybe.
- Guillaume: Sophie's too stuck up for me. But you've got a chance.
- Suzanne: I don't care about Guillaume. It's over between us, you know. He's an intelligent boy, but he can be so stupid about some things. He's really more dumb than mean. Luckily, I'm a nice person.
- Suzanne: You're the only one I like. I'm relaxed with you. You know, it's rare to find a guy like you, who doesn't pester girls.
- Bertrand: I've always said she was ugly, but...
- Sophie: Ugly? That's all you can say? She's not ugly. Maybe not a classic beauty, but she's very attractive and elegant. She has lovely limbs, beautiful hands. The quintessential young French girl.
- Bertrand: Doesn't make me feel patriotic.
- Sophie: Ha-ha. And men find her attractive.
- Bertrand: Not me.
- Sophie: No wonder. You're just a kid.
- Bertrand: So kids like you?
- Sophie: That's my cross to bear, yes.
- Bertrand: [voiceover] There was a clear physical resemblance, I finally began to see, between all of Guillaume's girls. They weren't ugly, as I'd said, and similar less in face than in figure. Dismissing tall girls like Sophie as storks, Guillaume didn't try to justify his attraction to small, plump women.
- Bertrand: [voiceover] Innocent or guilty, naive or cunning, what did it matter. By depriving me of the right to pity her, Suzanne had her true revenge.
