Mlle. Villard:
I knew of books being burned, other things... I was terrified that these would be lost. Colonel von Waldheim:
A book is worth a few francs; we Germans can afford to destroy those. We all may not appreciate artistic merit, but cash value is another matter. Mlle. Villard:
You won't convince me that you're cynical. I know what these paintings mean to you. Colonel von Waldheim:
You are a perceptive woman. [Schmidt enters, with several other soldiers] Colonel von Waldheim:
We're removing the paintings. Pack them carefully. Mlle. Villard:
Where are you taking them? Colonel von Waldheim:
To a safe place. Mlle. Villard:
But no place is as safe as Paris!
