Quotes 

• Tamara : Don't worry. She won't divorce you. If she does, you can always go to the other one. She throws you out too -- you can come to me.

• Tamara : The truth is, I have no claim on him. He probably always loved you. I'm, I'm sure he slept with you before me.

  Yadwiga : Oh, no! I was an innocent girl! I came to him a virgin.

  Tamara : Oh, congratulations. Men love virgins. If every man had his way, every woman would lie down a prostitute and get up a virgin.

• Tamara : No, I'm not the same. I'm dead. They put nylon stockings on me, they dyed my hair, they polished my fingernails. God help me. But I'm dead. So I bear no grudges against anyone. Nor am I dependent on anyone.

• Tamara : Who's the lucky woman who has taken my place, Herman?

• Tamara : If a woman loves a man, she wants to have his child. She wants to be his wife too. And not have him run off with another woman.

• Tamara : What sort of person is your mistress?

  Herman : A little crazy, but tremendously interesting.

• Tamara : Were you always like this? Or did the war do it? I can't remember what kind of person you used to be.

• Herman : I don't want to go home, Tamara.

  Tamara : What do you want to do? Stay here among the dead?

• Tamara : You won't believe me, but, sometimes our little David and Sarah come to me at night. They talk till morning. But when I wake up, I don't remember anything.

• Tamara : You have a good heart, but I can't accept such a sacrifice. A slit throat cannot be sewn together again.

• Herman : What do you look like now? What are you, an angel?

  Tamara : Who knows what angels are?

• Tamara : You want three women, but you always go to the one who calls you the loudest... and who is sickest! She's not your lover, she's your enemy!

• Tamara : If you go with her, you're digging your own grave.

  Herman : Maybe I would be better off dead. But I don't have the guts to kill myself.
