• Heurtebise : I admire you, Orphée. I could have listened a thousand times and not paid the slightest attention.

  Orphée : Where could they be coming from, Heurtebise? They're on no other station. I'm certain they're meant for me.

  Eurydice : Orphée, nothing matters but this car. I could die and you wouldn't even notice.

  Orphée : We were dead and we didn't notice.

• Orphée : My life had begun to pass its peak. It was rotting, stinking of success and of death. The least of these phrases is much more than any of my poems. I'd given all that I've written for even one of those little phrases. I'm on the trail of the unknown.

  Eurydice : Orphée, little phrases won't feed our child.

  Orphée : There's a woman for you, Heurtebise. You discover a world and she speaks to you of baby clothes and bills.

  Aglaonice : There, there, calm down. Men always come back. They're so absurd!

• Eurydice : Orphée was horrible.

  Heurtebise : No, he's a genius and every genius has his moods.

• Eurydice : It's not that talking car that I fear. It's what he's looking for.
