Pierre-François Lacenaire: Is it not absurd to ask people who they are?

Édouard, Count de Montray: Excuse me?

Pierre-François Lacenaire: That's why they're so evasive. They give you the easy reply: a name, a title. But who they are really, who they are deep down, they conceal with great care.

Mme Hermine: You're being unreasonable.

Baptiste: True, I'm unreasonable.

Mme Hermine: Shutting yourself up like a monk!

Baptiste: No, monks pray. I sleep, I dream.
