General Sergei Pavlovich Bounine : [to Petrovin] Would you recognize the smile of a girl you knew ten years ago?
Piotr Ivanovich Petrovin : I didn't think of that!
General Sergei Pavlovich Bounine : You're both fools! You're examining her as if she was the real Anastasia. There is no Anastasta! She was shot to death ten years ago by a firing squad. We're not looking for her, gentlemen. We're seeking only a reasonable facsimile.

Anastasia : So I've heard before. All of it. Say this. Remember that. You are. You are not. I know you. I don't know you. Oh, I've heard it many times.
General Sergei Pavlovich Bounine : Where?
Anastasia : Bucharest, Berlin...
Piotr Ivanovich Petrovin : Berlin?
Anastasia : China! I don't remember!

Piotr Ivanovich Petrovin : I think she's very tired.
Anastasia : Now, I've had my coffee. Besides, it all helps to bring my memory back. And maybe one memory will convince someone. Even if it's only me.
