The Devil-Doll - A Life of Freedom and Condemnation
Malita:
This is wonderful, Lavond. Now that you are free, we can go on with our work, without being bothered by the police.
Lavond (as Madame Mandelip):
No, Malita, my work is over, but I am not free. Why, if they ever found out who I was, the police would want a lot of questions answered: What happened to Radin? Who paralyzed Coulvet? No, Malita, when I proved my innocence, I condemned myself forever.

The Devil-Doll - Desire for Transformation and Control
Lavond (as Madame Mandelip): [after having observed the shrinking of Lachna]
This is like some horrible dream. I don't want any part of this! Restore her to what she was!
Malita:
No, she will always remain small. Small! We can make the whole WORLD small, as Marcel wanted. We can go to Paris. There are many people there... There's where we begin our work!
Lavond (as Madame Mandelip):
Yes, Malita.

The Devil-Doll - Dimensions of Mind and Reality
Lavond (as Madame Mandelip): [a policeman has just left the shop, failing to recognize Lavond in disguise]
Stupid policeman... To let an old white wig cost him 100 thousand francs.
Malita:
It might have been safer to take him downstairs and make him "small.
Lavond (as Madame Mandelip):
He's small already, in mind. In fact, Malita, if most men were reduced to the dimensions of their mentality, Marcel's plan wouldn't be necessary.
