- Margaret White: I should've killed myself when he put it in me. After the first time, before we were married, Ralph promised never again. He promised and I believed him. But sin never dies. Sin never dies. At first it was all right. We lived sinlessly. We slept in the same bed, but we never did it. And then, that night, I saw him looking down at me that way. We got down on out knees to pray for strength. I smelled the whiskey on his breath. Then he took me. He took me, with the filthy roadhouse whiskey on his breath, and I liked it. I liked it! With all that dirty touching of his hands all over me. I should've given you to God when you were born, but I was weak and backsliding, and now the devil has come home. We'll pray.
- Carrie White: Yes.
- Margaret White: We'll pray. We'll pray. We'll pray for the last time. We'll pray.
