    The tears I have cried over Germany have dried. I have washed my face.
    Marlene Dietrich (1904–1992)

    By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, to-day in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew.

    Albert Einstein (1879–1955)

    It is the emotions to which one objects in Germany most of all.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
