Quote context

[...]

- Look, you always lived in the Casbah. For you, there is nothing outside.

- The Casbah's big enough.

- Not for me. It's like being in a grave. Can't stand much more of it.

- If you want to go away, I'll go with you. Pepe, take me with you. We could be happy together.

- Oh. You think I would look funny in your big city! I'm not good enough for you there!

- Oh, Ines, it isn't you. It's the Casbah. You belong here.

- You don't understand the way I feel. I've stood it for two years.

- You're tired of me!

- It has nothing to do with you. I just want to get away.

- Do you know when you're going away? Never!

- You'll see.

- You can't do it!
