Women of Niskavuori (1938)

Olga Tainio: Loviisa, Niskavuoren vanha emäntä

Quotes 

• Niskavuoren vanha emäntä (old matron) : Even the milkmaids would help on the fields in between milkings. Now they just nap as much as they can.

  Loviisa's guest : Yes, because they've been with boys all night!

  Rovasti (dean) : That's what the world has come down to. It's rare to meet a chaste maid in the cowshed, anymore.

  [Said by the village religious authority figure!]
