Quotes 

• Grete : Actors are stupid, dishonest and vain.

• Grete : What do you want from Voss? She's no good at soccer.

• Grete : You'd make a good pair - at the bar.

  Robert Krohn : You mean she drinks?

  Grete : All actors drink. And when they don't have any work, they hit the bottle. It's the law of nature. Her marriage is finished, too.

  Robert Krohn : Is that true or just gossip?

  Grete : Another law of nature, my boy: the gossip you hear about an actor is always true.

• Robert Krohn : Thanks, Grete. If I can do you a favor anytime...

  Grete : Not likely. Sports are always about the winners and I'm interested in the losers.

  Robert Krohn : You wouldn't have Voss' address, by any chance? She's one of your losers.

  Grete : I'm only interested in them as long as they're losing, not after they've lost.

• Veronika Voss : Don't you think all artists should unite?

  Grete : You mean a kind of union?

  Veronika Voss : Good heavens, no. For the freedom of art. Art needs freedom. How should it liberate people otherwise?
