It’s probably fair to say that in all the years of Hitler’s reign, no person was able to serve the Führer as loyally as me. A human doesn’t have a heart like mine. The human heart is a line, whereas my own is a circle, and I have the endless ability to be in the right place at the right time. The consequence of this is that I’m always finding humans at their best and worst. I see their ugly and their beauty, and I wonder how the same thing can be both. Still, they have one thing I envy.Humans, if nothing else, have the good sense to die.

Jego długa postać w łóżku i srebro oczu, przeświecające spod powiek. Jego dusza usiadła, potem wyszła mi naprzeciw. Takie dusze zawsze to czynią – to te najlepsze. Podnoszą się i mówią: „Znam cię, jestem gotowa. Nie, żebym się prosiła, oczywiście, ale pójdę z tobą dobrowolnie”. Te dusze są bardzo lekkie, bo idą bez bagażu, rozdały już siebie. Ta częściowo odpłynęła z oddechem akordeonu, ze wspomnieniem bąbelków wypitego latem szampana, z dotrzymanymi obietnicami.
