Quotes 

• The Principal : Through discipline and hunger we will become great.

• Oberin des Stifts : Poverty is not sin, poverty ennobles. This is the true meaning of Prussianism as it once was. Let the others splurge. They'll regret it.

• Frl. von Bernburg : We must be a home for the children. Their mothers.

  Oberin des Stifts : We are a facility. There is no room for affinities. That only leads to infatuation.

  Frl. von Kesten : Always love. Discipline is our focus.

• Oberin des Stifts : It's inconceivable. You were acting like some urchin from the street. You're bringing shame to the entire school!

• Oberin des Stifts : People like you are banned from society. You'll find out about your punishment later. I'm sure you know that you sinned against Miss von Bernburg. She'll never forgive you.

  Manuela von Meinhardis : But what did I do?

• Oberin des Stifts : Did everybody go mad?

• Oberin des Stifts : Aren't you ashamed of yourself? An embarrassment! Since this school opened there hasn't been such a scandal. You're the worst child that has ever been accepted. If you were younger, you'd be spanked.
