Memorable Quotes from Loredana Nusciak
4 quotesThe Illusion of Protection and Love
María
It’s not for me to say. But for the first time, I felt like I was a real woman. Someone to protect, and… and to be loved, Django.
Django
I’m glad I made you feel like a real woman – very glad. I mean that.
[closes the door; begins to disrobe María]
María
I thank you because, even if only for a few moments, you’ve given me the feeling of having a man nearby, to protect me… to love me.
Django
In that case, the illusion must be complete. Brief – but complete.
[closes the door; María breathes nervously as Django begins disrobing her]

Confrontation Among Klansmen and Django
Klansman #1
You can relax for a minute, till we build a fire under that cross, with you on top of it. Did you have fun… with the Mexicans?
Klansman #2
Burnin’s a lot better… than getting beaten to death!
Klansman #1
Are you here to bury the dead, huh? Then you’re in business, and here’s your first customers.
Django
Whatever I’m doing here is none of your business.
Klansman #1
Careful, mister. From the way you talk, I get the idea you wanna be helped into that box you’re lugging around!
Django
Could be.
Klansman #1
You’re a Yankee, ain’t ya?
Django
I fought for the North.
Klansman #1
We don’t take much to folks who fought for the North – get the idea?
Django
Yeah, I get the idea. Yeah.
Klansman #2
What the hell are we worrying about him for? Let’s finish the girl off!
Django
A woman shouldn’t be treated in that way.
Klansman #1
What’s that you said?
Django
It’s not important. And if I bothered you, will you accept my apology? My name is Django. No one will hurt you anymore, as long as you’re with me. You can’t go far alone. That bridge isn’t exactly where I’m headed for, now. I got some business in town – a personal matter. Tell me your name.
[shoots the Klansmen, and approaches María; María attempts to cross the wooden bridge in front of them]
María
María.
Django
Let’s go, María.
[shoots a Klansman, who falls into the quicksand below]

A Dangerous Choice for Love and Survival
María
Django, you have to leave now! You’ll come back for me. I don’t want you to get killed now just because of me.
Django
I still got one thing to do. I gotta kill Jackson. Until he’s dead, there isn’t gonna be peace for any of us, ever. There just isn’t any other way. Jackson has got to die… and I’m the one who has to kill him, María. Then we can start a new life together. You see what I mean, María? You understand me? If I don’t kill him, we’ll never be out of danger. You see… it’s his life or ours.
María
Django, your hands are broken!
Django
It won’t stop me from killing him. Nathaniel, hide María, and tell Jackson that I’ll be waiting at the cemetery. Understand? Just the two of us now. I’ll be waiting.
María
Django, go! Save yourself. Get away, before it's too late. Don't worry about me.
Django
There's one thing l have left to do. l have to kill Jackson. It's the only way for this town to start living again, and for me, as well. You can't run away forever. There comes a time when you must stop and fight to the end. I realized it when I was holding your hand so tightly… while the coffin was sinking into the quicksand. If I don't succeed, at least I will have tried... to redeem my life.
María
Django, your... your hands!
Django
My hands will serve me yet. Nathaniel, hide María, and tell Jackson that I'll wait for him by the crosses of Tombstone… because his time has come.

Crossing Bridges and Letting Go of the Past
Django
This time, I’ve gotta cross that bridge. I’ve waited long enough… long enough so I could finally bury Django in that box. With that gold, I can forget I was Django.
María
Leave all that gold here, Django; it’ll bring heartache. What really matters is if we could have a new life… and you’ll forget what happened here. I love you, Django.
Django
Listen, María: love is something I can never feel again. The girl I once loved was killed, and I can never forget that. If I take you with me, then… you’ll probably get killed, too. And, I… wouldn’t want that to happen.
Django
It's finally time for me to cross that bridge. I've waited a lifetime… a lifetime to bury Django in this coffin. The gold will help me make him disappear forever.
María
Forget the gold, Django! What does it matter to you? We can start a new life together. I'll help you forget. I love you, Django.
Django
I left love behind many years ago. It's buried under a cross in the Tombstone cemetery. If I brought you with me, you might come to the same end. And maybe… you wouldn't be able to make me forget.
