Jean de Florette
- Ugolin: Is that why you rented this old farm?
- Jean de Florette: I didn't rent it.
- Ugolin: Did you buy it?
- Jean de Florette: I didn't buy it either, but it's all mine.
- Ugolin: You're not Jean de Florette, are you?
- Jean de Florette: I'm Jean, and my mother was Florette. But my real name is Jean Cadoret.
- Ugolin: If you'd been born here, it would be Jean de Florette.
- Jean de Florette: I also own a spring.
- Ugolin: What spring? Where?
- Jean de Florette: It's marked on the land register. Come and take a look. Maybe you can help me locate it.
- Jean de Florette: I'm a hunchback! Have you forgotten that? Do you think that's easy?
- Aimee Cadoret: Jean...
- Jean de Florette: Isn't there no one, anybody up there? There's nobody up there! I'm a hunchback! Do you think that's easy? There's nobody up there.
- Aimee Cadoret: So you won't sell?
- Jean de Florette: Of course not! I'll never sell the house where my mother was born, and where I hope to live forever until I die as a rich man! We can get by quite well on four thousand francs! I'll buy a mule, a load of miner's tools, and some dynamite to blast this damn rock! In a year I'll pay off the mortgage, and we'll be set!
