Lawrence: Do you know the way to The Hildegarde Cafe?
Heinrich: Its just round the corner there. You can't miss the sign.
Lawrence: Thank you.
Heinrich: Yor not from these parts are you?
Lawrence: No, I'm on a visit with the young socialists from England.
Heinrich: You won't find any here. We're all democrats round here.
Lawrence: I think we're the same, only called different.
Heinrich: Well, at least yo're not American, as I thout at first. You'd be in the wrong
quarter of Berlin if you were.
Lawrence: You don't like American?
Heinrich: Sometimes I feel that I am American. It was an East German rocket that
flew man to the moon. Apparently the stars and stripes are our flag.
Lawrence: I think you both have the same mystique.
Heinrich: I see yo're a dreamer then like old Braun?
Lawrence: Yes, and I too want to fly. In the imagination.
Heinrich: You have ideals. Have you them about us?
Lawrence: I am also a romantic. I just see the three letters GDR and its like a spell
drifts in dust before my eyes.
Heinrich: You are a poet? You will find us very different. I hope we will not
disappoint you more than you will no dout disappoint us.
Lawrence: I am not easily upset. I live in the glass house.
Heinrich: You had better hurry along then. Hildegard will not be serving all day.
Lawrence: You are going that way too?
Heinrich: Not my training day today.
Lawrence: At the rink or on the watchtower?
Heinrich: Both. I have to look out for those defectors, even if their departure would
leave me with a rival less.
Lawrence: Good day then, and good luck with the training.
Heinrich: No fortune is required. Only to be born here. We are given the worst to be
the best.
Lawrence: Is that yor secret then?
Heinrich: No, I woldn't say that.
Lawrence: You just did.
Heinrich: No, I WOULDN'T say that.
Lawrence: Oh, I see.
