Quotes 

• Priest : Hey, sir. Tame your stick! I can see it clearly between your thighs! Who taught you such manners?

  Antonín Dura : Don't take me for someone with no manners. I took off my shorts for a good reason, as skin is meant to breathe and requires it. I was taught the principles of good hygiene. I've adopted them and I follow them with great benefit to my body.

• Maj. Hugo : Let's eat and drink, bring the food! Fatty cheese, venison, birds, lamb. All that is born live and all that hatches from an egg. Bring all edible that ripens, all that has fins, and all kinds of crustaceans eating in civilized countries. Bring it here, it's daytime, the earth has turned and it's time to eat.

  Priest : Major, have you become a glutton or a talker? Do you wish to show off your teeth or your tongue?

• Antonín Dura : The nights are delightful and the days are worthless. Why is that so, Father?

  Priest : I think it's because you are a great sinner, and this nasty, windy weather every day is the punishment of heaven.

  Antonín Dura : The devil it is! There were times when we sinned all we wanted and the sun kept shining. It's something else, I believe.

  Maj. Hugo : The attraction of the sexes is older than the rocks and the sea, yet that's no reason for a deluge the arrive.

• Katerina Durová : They deceived me by drenching their clothes!

  Priest : Look at Antonin. Do you think this oaf could win such a pretty girl? Are you sure it was the magician's Anna?

  Maj. Hugo : Canon Roch is right. Maybe it was a granny picking mushrooms. Your husband tends to be unchaste, but he's old now.

  Katerina Durová : I know him better than anyone how old he is. But this slut did not come from mushrooms.

• Maj. Hugo : It's good to have a merry lady friend, I know. Their little ears and their little pink lips. I know it all, as I say, but time passes and things are forgotten.

  Priest : Women are fools. They have never been in any way a part of great things and they know not spiritual joy.

• Priest : I'd like to know how Arnostek will make his bed and lie in it and what the two women will do, since I believe that Arnostek's wagon is small and surely doe not have three bedrooms.
