Agnese Ascalone : No!
Peppino Califano : Agnese, what are you making me do!

Peppino Califano : I don't want Agnese.
Orlando Califano : What?
Amalia Califano : What's that?
Peppino Califano : I want a virgin for a wife. Why should I give up that right?
Orlando Califano : But you saw Don Vincenzo.
Peppino Califano : Answer me this: In all honesty, would you have married Mama if she'd done what Agnese did with me?
Orlando Califano : What's that got to do with it?
Amalia Califano : You tried to get me to.
Orlando Califano : So? It's a man's right to ask, a woman's duty to refuse.
Peppino Califano : Exactly! Agnese didn't refuse, did she? I won't marry that whore!

L'avvocato Ciarpetta : The law is very clear. Article 544. All your offenses, listed in Article 530 - rape, corruption of a minor, et cetera - are nullified by marriage of the offended party. In short: He has to marry her.
Peppino Califano : I won't do it! Better jail than marrying that tramp!
L'avvocato Ciarpetta : Don't try the same story on us that you gave the judge. Even he didn't fall for it. You seduced her!
Peppino Califano : Ah, so if I marry her, she's suddenly pure again?
L'avvocato Ciarpetta : Certainly.
Peppino Califano : Nice logic!

Peppino Califano : I wasn't fleeing. I was just running.
