"May I ask you something personal... or something political?" "Why do you guard the Wall?" "My grades weren't good enough to study medicine." "That's why I enlisted for three years." "It's my only chance to get accepted to med school." "I ended up guarding the Wall because of Comrade Father." "He helped guard the Wall when it was built in 1961." "He wanted me to keep up the tradition." "He has his contacts at the Ministry of Defense and all." "That's tough" "That's why I left... for Berlin." "So my father can't run my life anymore."

"We're closed!" "Get lost!" "M1 to M2, take over, please." "What's wrong?" "Was your cover blown?" "I think so." "The target?" "The waitress... and the target." "Terrific!" "A jerk like you belongs in the factory not in the secret service!" "Dismissed!" "At your command!" "Andy always told me" "I won't go without you." "And now..."

"They branded a friend of mine as Enemy of the State, because he was a vegetarian." "He refused to eat meat." "And they accused him of resisting the socialist system." "To them, he was a hostile person." "In fact, he was just a vegetarian." " So what's become of him?" " An Enemy of the State." " Your friend is in prison?" " He doesn't want me to visit him." "He wrote me in a letter that I'm no longer his friend me, the son of a party boss." "He wanted the security guys who read his letters to understand it correctly:" "They shouldn't suspect me of agreeing with him." "Thank you." "The state declared the church to be in disrepair to keep dissidents from meeting here under the auspices of the church." " But it isn't in disrepair." "Come on" " No, I'm afraid." "I'm with you." "I'll race you to the top." "My God, it's beautiful!" " Hold me tightly?" " Sure." "Nice!" "Do you believe in God?" "No." "That's strange." "Nobody ever asked me that before."

" I was on duty like always" " I know." "But why did my bags break just past the sentry bar?" "Why not ten meters in front or behind it?" "In that case we wouldn't have met." "Are we fulfilling His plan?" "Plan fulfillment... perhaps." " Would you mind?" " Not if it's a good plan." "I have one, too." "Yeah?" "Damn it!" "You gotta cross the border." "If you're late, they won't let you in again!" " Never again?" " Never!" "I know!" "Come on!" "So that was it?" "Wait for me!" " I won't let you haul me away!" " Come on!" "Help!"

"Aren't you on alert?" " What for?" " Because we're letting them go." "In Prague." "We're closing all borders with Poland and Czechoslovakia." "What?" "That just increases the pressure!" "Those who are imprisoned want out." "Imprisoned?" "If you have a visa, you can travel." "Yeah, but who gets a visa?" " Those who come back." "It's a matter of trust" " Yeah, sure." "And those who don't trust us don't see that workers' kids have equal chances, women are equal, day care is free, rents are cheap, pensions are safe" " and rolls only cost 5 pfennigs" " Right!" "And to make sure it stays that way we flex our muscles." "Sascha!" " My father was executed in a concentration camp" " As a communist." "Because he fought for what we created here He died for this!" "But not so nobody can travel." "It's 12:30." "The boy is on duty at six." "And you have a 1-hour drive to Neu-Brandenburg No visa needed!" "Go!" " Good night, Mom." " Good night" " Hey."

"If you don't, you can't scram either!" "That's dialectics." "Get outta here!" "Pretty." "You're a stupid, love-crazed little sergeant." "And you fall for the first gal from the West." "Who said she doesn't work for the CIA?" "Just right now they'd love to know where our mines are, where the weak spots are on our borders When things get hot." "And people start pushing here they want to push, too, from the other side, so the Wall caves in." "You don't believe me?" "Let me tell you something You're our weakest spot." "Whether she works for the CIA, the West Germans or the Mossad we'll find out right away." "We have our informers." "But how could you know?" "Of course not." "But your little fling behind our backs possibly with a hostile secret service has engaged entire departments here." "Thanks a lot, Sergeant." "We have nothing better to do." "'Born in the USA.'"
