Inge Dournenvald:
There is a moment every winter when I remember that childhood winter. The winter of the Auschwitz. The winter that Hitler invaded our country and took away all that my family and I held dear.

Inge Dournenvald:
I'm proud of being Jewish.

Lise Mueller:
I am holding something in my hand, Countess Zora. Does it penetrate your mind?

Inge Dournenvald:
Um... it is a... rather dirty hair pin!

Inge Dournenvald:
What's that song?

Lise Mueller:
I don't know. My brother taught it to me.

Inge Dournenvald:
I like it.

Opah Oskar Reikman:
We are cleaning God's earth. There is no shame in that.

Lise Mueller:
Stay away from my brother, Lise. He's evil.

Hannah Dournenvald:
Lise's brother Heinz is the boy who tried to kill your mother but succeeded only in breaking my leg.

Lise Mueller:
But it doesn't change the way I feel inside.

Inge Dournenvald:
Well, it changes the way I feel inside!

Tommi Lowberg:
They dehumanize us. They debase us. And they're not going to stop because of a plebescite.

Lise Mueller:
This is my seat.

Hannah Dournenvald:
You're not taking anything you don't need, are you?

Inge Dournenvald:
No, Mother. Nothing I don't need.

Inge Dournenvald:
I think we both knew then that we would never see each other again. But when I look back at my life, at the people who really mattered, I see Lise. She is still the best friend I ever had.
