    [pause]

    Wilhelm Grimm: Just tell them I'm your brother.

  • Wilhelm Grimm: [final line] Once upon a time

    [pause]

    Wilhelm Grimm: there were two brothers!

  • Grand Dame: I find your collection of folk tales quite brilliant, actually.

    Jacob Grimm: Thank you.

    Wilhelm Grimm: Some claim the shoe was made of fur. Others insist it was glass. Well, I guess we'll never know.

    Grand Dame: Perhaps you will allow me to set the record straight?

  • Wilhelm Grimm: I love you Marja- you're the only human being in the world that I love. The others I hate, all of them. Not only these village clowns who babble idiotically in the market square, but the German people too. They lost the war, not our army.
