Quotes6

  • Katarina: I know we can't be together. I just want my job back.
  • Adam: Christ!
  • Katarina: "Courage is life's only measure"
  • Adam: Yes, but if you can't handle reality, don't dabble in philosophy.
  • Adam: My motto is to be as true in life as possible.
  • Katarina: How do you do that?
  • Adam: You do it. You look after everything that's true. Everything that's true is beautiful.
  • Katarina: [narrating] We don't have all the time in the world. To get anywhere, you need to be constructive. You have to make an effort. And what nobody knows, doesn't exist.
  • Katarina: [to her mother] I'll never become like you. If I do, I'll kill myself.
  • [first lines]
  • Katarina: [wearing headphones listening to Mozart] We don't have all the time in the world. You shouldn't waste life, so the only thing that happens is that your pussy gets slack. The first time I heard Mozart was on YouTube. That's nearly a year ago. I was searching for some stupid clip, and suddenly I was captivated - by the music. Since then, they can't touch me. They can take their cocks and their ugly lives and say what they want. I don't care. I'm not there anymore. In some bloody way I'll escape all this and get to the other side. To where it's more real than this dreadful reality. To where it's... beautiful.
  • Adam: [viewing at a painting] Real pain is the starting point of all human development. So, yes, it is convenient for those in power to stuff a lot of pills into the citizens, so that they're happy in front of the telly eating crisps.
  • Katarina: They're sitting there satisfied with their crap lives, instead of changing anything.
