    • Quotes

      Esther: We don't even know each other anymore, or ourselves!

      Walter: When we met, we didn't know if we'd live to see the next day. We didn't know who was a comrade, who was an informant, who was there for the ride. Words meant nothing. So, we danced. When I moved, you followed. When you hesitated, I slowed down, because we could feel each other.
