    Germans are a kind of plant, not swaying when the wind is calm, and sometimes quietly like a machine. Once their hearts were awakened by art, a certain crazy power began to sway wildly, devouring the dead shell until it was reborn inside, and then sealed by the violent winter snow, and life was still. #剧情cadence of...

    The relationship between people is inherently very delicate, but if placed in a social environment, mutual suspicion, secrets, and betrayal will drive people into desperation. In an extremely exciting social background, all human rights, respect, and freedom appear to be lifeless. When the authority of society is arbitrarily manipulated and used by some people, bystanders see deep sorrow, but those who are in it cannot extricate themselves. The subtle change in Weisman's mentality is the key to...

    Depth flows out slowly, telling me that no matter how difficult, absurd or even dirty the world is, the soul can be moved by not giving up sincerity and justice, and it will bring dignity, grace and hope to...

The Lives of Others quotes

  • Georg Dreyman: The state office for statistics on Hans-Beimler street counts everything; knows everything: how many pairs of shoes I buy a year: 2.3, how many books I read a year: 3.2 and how many students graduate with perfect marks: 6,347. But there's one statistic that isn't collected there, perhaps because such numbers cause even paper-pushers pain: and that is the suicide rate.

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Go away. I want to be alone.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam Sieland?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Do we know each other?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You don't know me, but I know you. Many people love you for who you are.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Actors are never "who they are."

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You are. I've seen you on stage. You were more who you are than you are now.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know what I'm like.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: I'm your audience.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I have to go.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Where to?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I'm meeting an old classmate. I...

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You see? Just now, you weren't being yourself.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: No?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: No.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know her well, this Christa-Maria Sieland. What do you think - would she hurt someone who loves her above all else? Would she sell herself for art?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: For art? You already have art. That'd be a bad deal. You are a great artist. Don't you know that?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: And you are a good man.
