F. W. Murnau

“ Among the vacationists was a Woman of the City. Several weeks had passed since her coming and still she lingered.
"They used to be like children, carefree...always happy and laughing..."
"They used to be like children, carefree...always happy and laughing..."
"Now he ruins himself for that woman from the city—Money-lenders strip the farm—"
"Now he ruins himself for that woman from the city—Money-lenders strip the farm—and his wife sits alone." ”

“ This song of the Man and his Wife is of no place and every place; you might hear it anywhere at any time.
For wherever the sun rises and sets...in the city's turmoil or under the open sky on the farm, life is much the same ”

“ She is young...and inexperienced. Guide her and love her..."
"...keep and protect her from all harm."
"Wilt thou LOVE her?"
"Forgive me!"
Drivers
Get out of the way! Get out of there! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! ”
