    The Magician quotes

    • Simson, the coach driver: Having second thoughts?

      Sara Lindqvist: Second thoughts? I made no promises.

      Simson, the coach driver: You sure seemed eager last night.

      Sara Lindqvist: You trying to embarrass me? Yesterday was yesterday, and today is Sunday.

    • Johan Spegel: [Vogler has come across a sick man lying in the forest near the road] Good day, sir. My name is Johan Spegel. I am very ill, as you can see. Would you alleviate my suffering with a little brandy? For brandy is my infirmity, but its remedy too.

      Johan Spegel: [Vogler gives the man some brandy, which seems to revive him] I am an actor. In fact, a member of the famous Stenbourg troupe. But my illness has put an end to my career.

      Johan Spegel: [Vogler helps the man to his feet, whereupon Spegel takes a closer look at Vogler] Are you an actor too?

      Johan Spegel: [Vogler mutely shakes his head "no"] Then why the disguise? Your beard is fake, and your eyebrows and hair are dyed. Are you a swindler who must conceal his true face?
