The Reluctant Saint (1962)

Akim Tamiroff: Bishop Durso

Quotes 

• Bishop : It always troubled me, the Trinity. You know, Giuseppe, I could never really understand it. Does it trouble you?

  Bishop : No. There are three persons in one God. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Three in one.

  Bishop : Yes, but that's for a child. But a small comfort to a Bishop. You see, I'm a peasant, Giuseppe, just like you. A practical man, so I understand only what I feel, and what I see.

  Giuseppe : Look, look. One blanket and one, two, three folds. Three folds in one blanket - three persons in one God, like the Trinity.

• Bishop : Brother Giuseppe! I knew you'd be here someday.

  Giuseppe : [overjoyed that the Bishop remembers him]  Your Excellency.

  Bishop : How are the lambs?

  Giuseppe : Oh, they are sheep now, your Excellency.

  Bishop : Oh yes, of course. Has it been that long? And the studies - they've been hard, eh?

  Giuseppe : [sighs and nods]  But mostly I miss the stables. That's where I really belong, I shouldn't be here.

  Bishop : Let me be the judge of that, Giuseppe. There will be many lost sheep to care for.
