Le moine Quotes in What Every Frenchwoman Wants (1987)

Tante Marguerite: Forgive me Father, I have sinned.

Le moine: Have you sinned in thought or deed?

Tante Marguerite: In thought.

Le moine: So it is.

Tante Marguerite: Yes, Father.

Le moine: Speak, I'm listening.

Tante Marguerite: It's stronger than me. I can't free myself of certain images.

Le moine: Images of a carnal sin?

Tante Marguerite: They are images of men. They're workers on the farm. Last time, even the image of a child.

Le moine: A child? What child?

Tante Marguerite: My nephew. Since he arrived, I keep thinking of him. I think I'm using the bath on Sunday. The warm water excites me. The smell of his body. The touch of his body. One day I saw him naked, I realized that he had became a man. He was standing in front of me. I don't know why... we embraced and we kissed. Then with his mouth... Then I ran desperately. I haven't seen him in many days. I've felt unclean since then.

Le moine: Really... what else?

Tante Marguerite: I looked several times in the mirror naked. And with my hand...

Le moine: Always alone?

Tante Marguerite: Yes. No, no. Do you know the governess?

Le moine: Even if you say, it gave you no pleasure. Roger!
