“It was already dark when Rath reached Küstriner Platz, where even the street-lighting was dimmer than in the city or in Charlottenburg. It almost seemed as if the streetlights were ashamed of what they were obliged to illuminate.”
Volker Kutscher, Babylon Berlin

“A few weeks ago, a pimp had fired a bullet into the mouth of a young SA Führer who had liberated one of his ‘girls’. On Sunday the Stormtrooper had died, and Goebbels’s newspaper Der Angriff had made a saint of the youth who had fallen in love with a whore and paid for it with his life, a martyr for the movement, or Blutzeuge as the Nazis called it.”
Volker Kutscher, The Silent Death

“Was machen Sie denn schon hier? Habe ich Ihrer Sekretärin die falsche Uhrzeit gennant?
Pünktlichkeit ist die Höflichkeit der Könige, sagte Rath.
Ein zu frühes Erscheinen ist meines Erachtens weitaus unhöflicher als ein zu spätes. Oder glauben Sie Ihr notorisches Zuspätkommen so wieder ausgleichen zu können?”
Volker Kutscher, Die Akte Vaterland
