• Dancaire : Was the colonel's party successful, Carmen?

  Carmen García : No, it was very stupid.

  Dancaire : Was it successful?

  Pablo : We need another 200 duros to get García out of jail.

  Carmen García : Let him stay where he is.

  Dancaire : Is that a way for a loving wife to feel about her husband?

  Carmen García : Let him rot.

  Pablo : No money for García? We'll tell him.

  Carmen García : [She takes a bag of money out from the inside of her skirt]  There, thief. And be welcome to it.

  Dancaire : Is that all?

  Carmen García : [Pablo pats her skirt]  I left the party early.

  [She walks towards the stairs, and money fall out of her skirt. She glares at the men and kicks it towards them, and spits at them] 

• Pablo : [They are in the middle of robbing a stagecoach]  We have company.

  Don José Lizarabengoa : [Carmen comes over and takes a man's watch]  What are you doing here? I told you I want you to stay away from this!

  Carmen García : I was bored! I won't sit on my haunches and wait for you like the wife of a payo, stirring a pot of stew. I've been my own woman and a Gypsy too long, my friend.

  Don José Lizarabengoa : I told you to leave these matters to me. I want no more of this.

  Carmen García : You told me you wanted no more. I'm not your slave. I'm Carmen and nobody tells me what to do, I do as I please. If you're ashamed of what I am, find another woman. Get yourself a payo wife! You and your payo honor. I spit on your honor!

  Don José Lizarabengoa : [She spits at him]  Get back to camp.

  Carmen García : I always used to ride with García.

  Don José Lizarabengoa : I'm not García.

  Carmen García : No, you're not. In many ways, you're not.

• Pablo : Just keep your eye on her and you'll get him!
