La Bête Humaine quotes

  • Séverine Roubaud: Yesterday he almost got crushed between two train cars. I was so close to being free. One morning you're fine and by the evening you're dead.

  • Séverine Roubaud: There he is.

    Jacques Lantier: Where? I don't see him.

    Séverine Roubaud: He's coming around the shed. He's coming towards us. I see his shadow on the wall.
