How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Beauty and the Beast.
Quote #4
BEAST: She's no longer your concern! Take him to the village!
As the Beast throws Maurice out of the castle, we come to a funky realization. The old man is just as exiled when he gets back to town as he was locked up in the Beast's tower. "Exile" in this case doesn't mean a physical place so much as being separated from someone you love. (In this case, it's Belle, who's taking his place.)
Quote #5
BELLE: Promise or no promise, I can't stay here another minute!
The incident with the wolves shows us the very practical dangers of exile. We really mean it when we call it the Murder Forest; leaving without permission definitely carries its share of risks. Contrast this with the Beast, who's been perfectly capable of leaving whenever he wanted.
