Mother Miriam Ruth : My dear, I don't think a Communion wafer has the recommended daily allowance of anything.
Sister Agnes : [whispers] Of God...
-
Doctor Martha Livingston : Agnes, how do you feel about babies?
Sister Agnes : Oh, they frighten me; I'm afraid I'll drop them. They have a soft spot on their heads, and if you drop them so they land on their heads, they become stupid. I was dropped on MY head; that's why I don't understand things.
Doctor Martha Livingston : Like what?
Sister Agnes : Numbers! You can spend your whole life counting 'em and never reach the end.
Doctor Martha Livingston : I don't understand them, either... Do you 'spose I was dropped on my head?
Sister Agnes : [concerned] I hope not... it's a terrible thing to be dropped on your head.
-
Sister Agnes : I don't understand what you're talking about. You want to talk about the baby, everbody wants to talk about the baby. But, I never saw the baby. So I can't talk about the baby, because I don't believe in the baby.
-
Sister Agnes : I feel as if I've eaten glass.
-
Doctor Martha Livingston : Who did this to you? Who?
Sister Agnes : God! It was God... and now I'll burn in Hell because I hate him.
-
Sister Agnes : As much as Mother Miriam loves me?
