Chantal : [after hearing Kevin Reevey's testimony and being accosted by an angry mob] Didn't you feel anything, listening to that testimony?
Peter Lavin : Yes, I did! I felt what a martyr I've been all my life. First to those lying little bastards, and now to you.
Chantal : You feel no guilt? No shame?
Peter Lavin : Kevin Reevey was a lonely little boy whom I befriended out of the kindness of my heart. I loved him.
Chantal : You loved him? You call THAT love?
Peter Lavin : Yes, I do.
Chantal : No! That is not loving! That is hurting! You have hurt this little boy. I could KILL YOU!
Chantal : [pause] I am going to ask this only once! Have you ever touched our children?
Peter Lavin : Why don't you ask them yourself. They're your children.
Chantal : That's right! They're MY children! They are no longer your children!

Peter Lavin : I wanted to hold him. His neck looked so soft, so young, and perfect. I was aroused, Father. Alive in my groin. I wanted to feel his warmth and tenderness. I wanted to feel the rush of release.
Priest in Confessional : Did you touch him?
Peter Lavin : No.
Priest in Confessional : Have you had these desires before?
Peter Lavin : Not for a long time.
Priest in Confessional : What did you do then, about these desires?
Peter Lavin : I sinned, Father!
