Quote context

[...]

- Forty years?

- Ever since you fell off that ladder. It must have been quite a big ladder, placed against a wall, and you fell backwards. Plump. That's where it caught you. On the left one, luckily.

- But what's it going to cost me?

- What's a yearling calf worth now, and a pig for killing? Two of them.

- 300,000 francs.

- Oh, what a thing to happen to me.

- Would you sooner try lords? I say nothing against it.

- That costs a lot, too, and it's never sure.

- How can I have got all that, the matter, with me?

- I can show you in a moment on the blackboard.

- Now then, here's your spinal column, in sections, very roughly, of course. This is your Turck's fascicle, and this is your Clarke's column. Can you follow me?

- Now then, when you fell off that ladder, your Turck and your Clarke slipped. Side-slipped. Like that.

- But look at them. What a position. The result is a constant and severe strain upon the multipolars.

- Oh, think of that now. Oh, just think of that.

- Oh, don't imagine that you're going to die of it today or tomorrow. No, no, we can take our time.

Top rated lines from this movie

Here in this town live some hundreds of people, a featureless, meaningless mess of humanity. What is my task? To rescue and resolve each one of them into a scientific individuality, into a medical existence of his own.
Do you suppose they even know what a microbe is? -I doubt it. Some of them may have heard the word, but I expect they think it's a sort of fly.
But now, like an organist at his keyboard, I pull a stop, I touch a note, and from far off, the sounds respond.
I put a man to bed. I watch. I wait. Something will come of it.
When I speak to you please answer 'yes, doctor' or 'no, doctor'. And when you talk of me say 'the doctor did this' or 'the doctor said so and so'. It's the thing I'm most particular about. -Er, yes doctor.
