Antonia's Line quotes

  • Pastoor (The Village Priest): And Our Lord said unto them: "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." And just as her accusers left, convicted by their own conscience, so we must think of our own transgressions before condemning others. Let us also remember that salvation came into the world through a woman. And that no one seeks her protection or help in vain. Nor should we forget the lesson read on the feast day of a holy woman: "She openeth her mouth with wisdom in her tongue is the law of kindness."

  • Kromme Vinger (Crooked Finger): Imagine moving to another time scale, so that a life-span of 80 years would be over in 29 days or last 80,000 years. Time...

    Kromme Vinger (Crooked Finger): We made it up.

    Thérèse (6): Perhaps ants live in their time...

    Thérèse (6): And bees.
