„I want to become a nun.“
„What are you talking about?“
„I have made up my mind. I will make a very good nun.“
„What a waste!“
„At least I won’t have to put up with the likes of you.“¨
„Oh, shut up. I have no major sins to confess.“
„Look, these empty streets – I always try to attach some divine importance to this random acts. What could God possibly be telling us?“
„It’s Labor Day, come on. If you’re going to a monastery …“
„Convent.“
„You surely are blessed by God and all the saints, but you are destined for secular greatness.“
„You could join me.“
„No way.“
„So what are you going to do with your life?“
