Koh Hansu: That is my blood you carry.
Sunja: No. This is my child. Mine.

Sunja: How can you speak of him like that? He is my husband now. He did what you could not.
Koh Hansu: I offered you so much more.
Sunja: You offered me shame, nothing more.

You and I, we have no family. No name, no dowry. Our only option is to take a man just as penniless. And then what? We can't afford to live together. And if we had children we'd just be bringing them into the same miserable poverty. So what's the point? Why bother dealing with marriage when we aren't even entitled to any of its benefits? That's how it is for us. That's how it will always be for us.

Shopkeeper: Three bowls.
Sunja's Mom: Thank you.
Shopkeeper: Perhaps the taste of it will swallow some of your sorrow as well.

Isak: Pastor, is this necessary?
Pastor: It gives me no comfort to say such things, but we live in difficult, callous times. Eve good people find themselves preying upon the weakness of others.
