Quotes 

• Taras : My son, why? Why?

  Andrei Bulba : I did what I had to do.

  Taras : From the day I plunged you in the river to give you life, I loved you as I loved the steppes. You were my pride! I gave you life. It is on me to take it away from you.

• Andrei Bulba : I'll tell you what the Poles taught me, that a Cosack is an ignorant barbarian, good enough to kiss a Pole's foot, or fight a Pole's war, but not good enough to walk Polish streets, or raise his eyes to a Polish woman, or rule his own land.

• Natalia Dubrov : I love you, Andrei, I will always love you. You know that. I love you. But I can't let you fight against your own people. I can't do it. You're a Cossack, Andrei.

  Andrei Bulba : I'm a man before I'm a Cossack.

  Natalia Dubrov : Don't let them use me.

  [they kiss] 

• Andrei Bulba : A lake, Papa. A lake is as good as a well!
