The Spirit of the Beehive Movie Quotes
Ana
The movie.
Isabel
Not now... Tomorrow.
Ana
Now... You promised. Why did he kill the girl, and why did they kill him after that?... You don't know - you're a liar.
Isabel
They didn't kill him, and he didn't kill the girl.
Ana
How do you know? How do you know they didn't die?
Isabel
Everything in the movies is fake. It's all a trick. Besides, I've seen him alive.
Ana
Where?
Isabel
In a place I know near the village. People can't see him. He only comes out at night.
Ana
Is he a ghost?
Isabel
No, he's a spirit.
Isabel
Like the spirit Dona Lucia talks about?
Isabel
Yes, but spirits have no bodies. That's why you can't kill them.
Ana
But he had one in the movie. He had arms and feet. He had everything.
Isabel
It's a disguise they put on when they go outside...
Ana
If he only comes out at night, how can you talk to him?
Isabel
I told you he was a spirit. If you're his friend, you can talk to him whenever you want. Just close your eyes and call him... It's me, Ana... It's me Ana...

Isabel
Papa, have you ever picked a bad mushroom?
Fernando
No. You know why?
Isabel
Why?
Fernando
Because I always do like my grandfather told me.
[he gets up and starts to walk; the girls follow]
Fernando
If you're not sure a mushroom's good, don't pick it. Because if it's bad, and you eat it, it's your last mushroom and your last everything too.

Fernando
Have you never wanted to do anything that was dangerous? Where would we be if no one tried to find out what lies beyond? Have you never wanted to look beyond the clouds and the stars? Or to know what causes the trees to bud or what changes darkness into light? But if you talk like that people call you crazy.

Take the brush and you wash your face with it. Then put soap on it.
