Julie Vignon edit

  • I appreciate what you did for me. But you see, I'm like any other woman. I sweat. I cough. I've cavities. You won't miss me. I'm sure you realize that now. Shut the door when you leave.
  • Now I have only one thing left to do: nothing. I don't want any belongings, any memories. No friends, no love. Those are all traps.
  • They took everything away. Only the mattress is left.

Madame Vignon edit

  • I'm just fine. I have everything here. I have the TV. You can see the whole world.
  • Do you want to tell me something about your husband or your home? Or your children? Or maybe yourself?

Other edit

  • La copiste: That music is so beautiful. One can't destroy things like that.
