Jacques Lantier : I can't believe how you've changed. You're a big girl now.
Flore : You've changed too. Now you look at me like the others do. I don't like that.

Flore : What got into you?
Jacques Lantier : Oh, I don't know. I didn't even know what I was doing.
Flore : Is that part of your illness?
Jacques Lantier : Yes. Did your mother tell you about it?
Flore : Yes.
Jacques Lantier : Yes, that's it. It's like this haze fills my head and twists everything out of shape. I start feeling like a mad dog. I never drink, mind you. Even a drop and I go crazy. I feel like I'm paying for all those fathers and grandfathers who drank. All those generations of drunkards who poisoned my blood and saddled me with this madness. It's a terrible thing.
