The Loves of Carmen Quotes:

Carmen García: [She is trying to convince Don Jose to let her escape] I run very fast. You should see me run. I have very good legs.
[She pulls up her skirt to expose her legs]
Carmen García: See what good legs I have, little soldier, for running.
[the men all gawk at her. She pushes Don Jose into the other soldiers and escapes from them]
García: [after shooting one of his fellow bandits in the face] It would take a clever person to recognize him now.
Carmen García: What is it? What do you see there that makes you look like that?
[She looks at the tarot cards]
Carmen García: That isn't my fortune.
Old Crone: The fat's in the fire, all right. Just as I said.
Carmen García: That isn't my fortune, I tell you. I didn't cut the cards.
[Carmen swats them off the table]
Carmen García: Anyway, I don't believe in cards. I never have. As if you could see in those stupid cards that death was walking my way. We all have to die. And I can't think of a nicer way than to be killed by love.
Don José Lizarabengoa: [noticing that Don Jose is looking at his stubbly face in a mirror with disgust] Yes, you've changed.
Don José Lizarabengoa: [with self loathing] We become what we do...
[with irony]
Don José Lizarabengoa: Don Jose!
[he throws away the mirror]
Don José Lizarabengoa: What are those Gypsies doing here?
Old Man: They've come to entertain. The colonel sent his own carriage after them. When he gives a party, he does things handsomely. I'll say that for him.
Don José Lizarabengoa: That girl, the one who's dancing. How can she be so bold as to come to the colonel's party? She's in hiding from the police.
Old Man: That's Carmen. And the colonel is a man just like any other man, I suppose. But it won't last. She never likes anybody very long.
