Love on a Pillow (1962)

Macha Méril: Raphaële

Quotes 

• Renaud Sarti : You're hopeless.

  Raphaële : Hope doesn't change anything.

• Renaud Sarti : With that money, I'll buy myself a truckload of cashmere sweaters. Or, rather, a calculator.

  Raphaële : What do you want to calculate?

  Renaud Sarti : The future. I'll be a secret advisor to every statesman. I'll predict wars, even those which weren't meant to be. They will have no choice but to wage them.

• Katov - un sculpteur : Florence would be a good place to work. Tuscany in the spring is ideal for inspiration. I've rented an old monastery. There's nothing more beautiful.

  Renaud Sarti : Florence or Paris...

  Raphaële : Caracas...

  Renaud Sarti : Or a quiet suburb...

  Katov - un sculpteur : Is all the same, I know. But I love Florence

• Raphaële : [singing]  King Renaud is back from war, With his guts in his hands, His mother's waiting in the tower, And she can see her son Renaud, Rejoice, Renaud! Your wife gave birth to a king, Neither my wife nor my son, Can bring joy to my heart, I can feel death is after me, Mother, have a bed made for me, Have it made, So my wife doesn't know, I won't sleep in it for long, For at midnight I shall pass away...

• Raphaële : Renaud will reappear one of these days, when you least expect it.

  Geneviève Le Theil : Here or anywhere - what does it matter?

  Raphaële : Are you still in his garden?

  Geneviève Le Theil : Yes, but I've closed the gate.

  Raphaële : The garden of clouds. One day you'll blow on it and it'll be gone!

  Geneviève Le Theil : Yes, but I don't want to blow it!

• Raphaële : I thought you were dead, my lord. Or, gone crazy.

  Renaud Sarti : I am both.
