Yakov:
You'll regret this, you fat-faced village idiot!

The Mayor:
What! You... you... How dare you!

Yakov:
Keep your dirty hands off me, you misbegotten peasants!

The Mayor:
Tie him up!

Yakov:
The Emperor will tear this stinking village down over your ears, you thieving lard-bucket! Heads will roll here like marbles - yours first, and then this flea-ridden sack of nothing you call the Inspector General!

Inspector General:
Oh! Why, he's insane! Take him away! Take him away!

Yakov:
This isn't the Inspector General! Don't make me laugh! The great Emperor wouldn't appoint a thing like this to a post of such importance! THIS is your Inspector General! Here! His carriage, his manner, his bearing. Gentlemen, take your choice.
