• Umeno : I'm one of the crooks.

  Sassa the yojimbo : That's right. This woman can be quite vicious. She uses yakuza, officials, and townsmen. She doesn't care who it is as long as she gets the money. Yours truly here is quite a crook, too. I can outdo the best of them. I'm at the top when it comes to being bad. A villain. How do you like that?

  Zatoichi : Actually, I'm quite a crook as well.

  Sassa the yojimbo : If you are, then behave like one.

• Umeno : I don't like men who yell. I also don't like men who only visit when they're drunk. And I despise men who don't pay what they owe.

• Umeno : The good die first and only the crooks survive.

• Sassa the yojimbo : Can I stay here tonight?

  Umeno : You're already staying here. It's almost dawn.

  Sassa the yojimbo : Tell me if you want to sleep with me. I want you badly.

  Umeno : You must have killed someone in your dream. And now you're scared so you want me. Are you going to pay me?

• Yasuke Eboshiya : I'd think that would be a difficult task for a woman.

  Umeno : But it can be done precisely because I'm a woman.

• Zatoichi : You have to handle all sorts of demons with these little hands.

  Umeno : That's right, Ichi. I just hope all those demons kill each other.

  Zatoichi : I agree. They should all go back to hell. But I don't want you to go with them.
