'Life? or Theater?' - A Play with Music - C.S. - Charlotte Salomon

Charlotte: 'I have some more [paintings she recently made] to show you'.
Daberlohn: Well, let's meet this evening... ..
Isn't it absurd to address each other so formally? You're such a baby – here, let me hold your hand.. ..Real painter's hands'.
Charlotte: 'To me they're just ugly'.. ..'You would be a wonderful subject for a portrait -'
Daberlohn (to himself) : 'Little girl, if you only knew what one has to go through to be able to paint'.

Franziska (mother of Charlotte): 'In Heaven everything is much more beautiful than here in earth – and when your Mummy has turned into a little angel she'll.. ..bring a letter, telling her what's like in Heaven..'. Franziska was of somewhat sentimental disposition.

I became my mother, my grandmother. I learned to travel all their paths and became all of them.. .I knew I had a mission, and no power on earth could stop me.
