Iole, Daugher of Pelias Quotes in Le fatiche di Ercole (1958)

Ercole: I've come a long way. Seeing you was worth it.

Iole, Daugher of Pelias: How simple men are. As though I were a plant or an animal. Still, I thank you, you know.

Ercole: I'm telling you the truth. Don't thank me for it.

Iole, Daugher of Pelias: What's the matter? Why do you sit and stare at me like that?

Ercole: I don't know. So few women come this way.

Iole, Daugher of Pelias: And so?

Ercole: As long as your here, I might as well. I never saw a girl more beautiful.

Ercole: Don't you really want me to stay here, Ilole?

Iole, Daugher of Pelias: It doesn't matter, just so long as you'll be with me. Oh, if you said you didn't love me and we were parted. To move alone through that house, to hear what the people say. Do stay.

Iole, Daugher of Pelias: I remember it now. I remember all that went on. Is it wrong to be as happy as I was then? But the gods won't answer that question. They turn from me when I ask.
