Giulia De Lezze: Go on, ask her. Ask her what you're longing to. Ask her what draws our husbands back to her - again and again - like pigs to a trough!

Veronica Franco: I gave my heart where riches were no use. Maffio Venier: Answer the question! Veronica Franco: I did what was necessary to live! Maffio Venier: Did you ever give yourself to a man who could not pay your fee? Veronica Franco: What other profession will you allow me? How shall I survive if I cannot marry?

Veronica Franco: Recant the curse you give my kind. Admit I have, as you, a heart and mind. Maffio Venier: A greedy hand, an empty heart is all that wrests your legs apart.
Veronica Franco: I think you mistake me for one of your easy court companions? Marco Venier: No, no I mistook the asking in your eyes.
Beatrice Venier: When my daughter is old enough, I want you to make her a courtesan. Veronica Franco: I will not pimp your daughter. Beatrice Venier: Look at the life you live! The freedom that you have. Will you deny my daughter the same chance?
Veronica Franco: How do people marry, Mother? Paola Franco: They strike a bargain. Veronica Franco: What's to bargain over if you're in love? Paola Franco: Marriage is a contract, not a perpetual tryst.
Marco Venier: I think I've missed you. Veronica Franco: With all the court ladies to amuse you? Marco Venier: Roman women, they can't hold a candle to the Venetian. Nor can French, nor can Florentine, nor can any woman from Europe to the Levant. Veronica Franco: No doubt you've sampled them all. Marco Venier: All but idle amusement until you blossomed.
Marco Venier: I bought this in Rome for you. Veronica Franco: You didn't buy it for me. Marco Venier: Yes, I did. I just didn't know it.
Marco Venier: I think perhaps you're too young - to accept what I would - truly give you. Veronica Franco: I am not so young as you are vain.
Veronica Franco: Mother, we can't go in there. Paola Franco: Ladies can't go in there. Courtesans can.
Maffio Venier: Venice may as well be deemed one large floating brothel. Marco Venier: What's biting your ass this fair evening, cousin? Maffio Venier: Um. Poverty. Always puts me in a bad mood.
