Quotes

Le Puits et le Pendule

Edit
  • Torquemada: Surely Rome understands that public executions discourage sin?
  • Cardinal: The good Lord, you know, padre, he want us to love our neighbor, no roast him, mmm? No roast him ...
  • Cardinal: No!
  • Gomez: No!
  • Cardinal: No, I tell you, I havea de seal of de Pope!
  • Gomez: Oh! He hasa de seal of de Pope!
  • Cardinal: NO! Help me!
  • Gomez: Help me!
  • Cardinal: Someone help me!
  • Gomez: Someone help me!
  • Cardinal: No! No, I tell you! No, Help me! Help me someone!
  • Francisco: I'm sorry, mistress, that you weren't properly able to confess. There just wasn't enough time to torture you.
  • Esmeralda: Thanks anyway.
  • Cardinal: The Pope also want the Inquisition to stop the use of torture. And declare an amnesty on all heretics and witches. Hmm?
  • Torquemada: Rome is behind the times. His Holiness is old and lost his zeal!
  • Cardinal: He is the Pope!
  • Torquemada: And I am the Inquisition!
  • Cardinal: His Holiness also DEMAND...order you to return to Rome with me for an audience.
  • Torquemada: I've received no such demand.
  • Cardinal: [chuckles] I just deliver it!
  • Cardinal: [about to be killed] No!
  • Gomez: Yes!
  • Mendoza: [as they scour Maria's blemish-free body] What exactly are we looking for, surgeon?
  • Dr. Heusos: Oh, hidden charms, poisons, a third nipple where Satan may suck. Any blemish may be a witch's mark. It could be as small as a pinprick.
  • Dr. Heusos: You idiots, why did you tear out her tongue?
  • Gomez: We didn't. We don't do tongues.
  • Francisco: Of course not. How can they confess if they don't have tongues?
  • [As Torquemada has the Cardinal bricked behind a wall]
  • Cardinal: For the love of God!
  • Torquemada: Yes, for the love of God.
  • Torquemada: Take them to their cells.
  • Maria: You swore you'd show mercy!
  • Torquemada: In this place, death is mercy.
  • Mendoza: Savior.
  • Torquemada: What are you doing here? Why don't you go torture some heretics!
  • Maria: I swear by all the saints I'm not a witch.
  • Cardinal: [being walled up alive] No! What-a you doing! No, you don't do this!
  • Torquemada: Satan is ever-present among us. Every sin and deed, word or thought, no matter how long forgotten... must be truly confessed. And punished!
