Marcell Domits: Adeus

Quotes 

• Jaleswari : [to village women]  Now, if the children go to school, they will become smarter. They'll think about how to survive on their own land. They can become doctors, soldiers, or even a teacher like Mr. Adeus.

  Village Woman : I don't want my children to become like Adeus. He can't hunt, he can't farm, he can't even sharpen knives.

  Adeus : [congenially, to Jaleswari]  I think our efforts are enough for today.

• Panglima Galiong Bengker : [angrily]  Adeus, wake up! That city girl is tougher than you!

  Adeus : [dejectedly, referring to Jaleswari]  That girl is incredible.

  [pause] 

  Adeus : She does not think of school as just a rectangular room. She has created an even bigger classroom.

  Panglima Galiong Bengker : [agitatedly]  So, wake up! You, here!

  [splashes Adeus with a bucket of water] 

  Panglima Galiong Bengker : Listen, Adeus! You are our hope, the village hope!
