Quotes 

• Superiora : One of the bases of our community is self-mortification and humiliation. That's why we have such bizarre-sounding names: Sister Manure, Sister Rat, Sister Damned, Sister Snake. Man will not be saved until he realizes he is the most despicable being ever created.

• Superiora : Very soon, this place will be full of murderesses, drug addicts, prostitues, just like before.

• Marquise : And anyway, I have no money. You may not have heard here about the economic crisis.

  Superiora : You're a millionairess!

  Marquise : To survive, one needs to be. And I don't want just to survive, I want to live life now!

• Sor Rata de Callejón : Are you going out?

  Superiora : Yes, I have to pay a visit.

  Sor Rata de Callejón : Where to?

• Superiora : What are you doing?

  Yolanda Bel : Breaking with my past. I want to start again, without drugs or memories.

  Superiora : Neither of them is easy to avoid.

• Superiora : Offer up your suffering for our sins.

  Superiora : I could bring a Mick Jagger poster if you prefer it.

  Yolanda Bel : Everything's fine.

• Superiora : Good news, Sister. We'll have a big party. We'll show the new Mother General that we're not beaten. You'll have some acid tonight.

• Superiora : The only jewels which adorn the brides of Jesus are the thorns and the cross. I have sinned! I must be punished!

• Superiora : God? Where is he? God has forsaken me. I beg him for forgiveness and shelter, but he hides.

• Marquise : You are disgusting.

  Superiora : Insult me if that helps you. Words don't scare me.

• Superiora : Thanks for singing at my party. You were so obscene!

  Yolanda Bel : I'm glad you liked it. I sang it for you.
