Giulia : What was Marcello like as a student?
Professor Quadri : Serious. Too serious!
Giulia : But you can't be too serious.
Professor Quadri : Really serious people are never serious.

Professor Quadri : Clerici, you had me convinced you were the typical new Italian.
Marcello : No such type exists yet, but we're creating him.
Anna : Through repression?
Marcello : No, through example.
Anna : Giving him castor oil? Throwing him into prison? By torturing them? Blackmailing?
Professor Quadri : Anna, please, dear, calm down. Clerici is a fascist. I'm an anti-fascist. We both knew. And we decided to have supper together all the same.
