The Trouble with Angels (1966)

Jim Hutton: Mr. Petrie

Quotes 

• Mother Superior : As for the social graces, I'm convinced that your school encourages barbarism and concerns itself only with free thinking, free wheeling and finger-painting.

  Mr. Petrie : The finest educational minds in the country happen to be on our side!

  Mother Superior : God is on ours!

• Mother Superior : The only desperation around here, Mr. Petrie, is that of the Sisters who have to cope with that product of progressive education you have inflicted upon us - namely Rachel Devery.

  Mr. Petrie : Well, I hardly expect you to completely accept new trends, creative concepts of education.

  Mother Superior : It's an abomination.
