Memorable Quotes from Maud Hansson
1 quoteSeeking an Encounter with the Devil
Block
They say you've had commerce with the devil.
Witch
Why do you ask?
Block
Not out of curiosity, but for very personal reasons. I, too, want to meet him.
Witch
Why?
Block
I want to ask him about God. He must know, he if anyone.
Witch
You can see him any time you want.
Block
How?
Witch
You must do as I say. Look into my eyes.
Witch
Well, what do you see? Do you see him?
Block
I see a stiff terror in your eyes. Nothing else.
Witch
No one? Nothing? No one?
Block
No.
Witch
Is he not standing behind your back either?
Block
No. There is nothing there.
Witch
But he is with me everywhere. If I stretch out my hand, I feel him. He is with me even now. The fire won't hurt me.
Block
Has he said so?
Witch
I know it.
Block
Has he said so?!
Witch
I know it! I know it! You must see him somewhere, you must! The priests had no difficulty seeing him, nor the soldiers either. They are so afraid of him that they dare not even touch me.
Block
Why have you broken her hands?
Soldier
It is not us.
Block
Who?
Soldier
Ask the monk there.
Block
What have you done to the girl?
Death
Will you never stop asking questions?
Block
No. I will never stop.
Death
But you get no answer.
