  Kurt Gerstein : That's all?

  Riccardo Fontana : That's all.

  Kurt Gerstein : He... he... he, he never... *even pronounced* the word "Jew" or "concentration camp!"

• Karl : In these heroic times, have you acquired some title or some kind of rank?

  Kurt Gerstein : Lieutenant of the Waffen-SS.

  Karl : Go to the SS Transportation Department. Thanks for your visit.

• Baron Von Otter : I can obtain passports for you and your family.

  Kurt Gerstein : No. No. I refuse to leave my country. I must testify about all this.

• Kurt Gerstein : It's unimaginable. The Jews aren't being expelled, as we thought. They're exterminated. I just got back from the camps in Poland. They're *exterminating* Jews. The strongest are pressed into forced labor. The others, the women and children... are gassed. I saw it with my own eyes.
