"I am a woman of passion, not of politics."

"I was born to be a courtesan, not a spy. I love men too much to betray them."

"A courtesan's life is a life of freedom. I choose my own path, I make my own rules. No one can tell me what to do."

"I am not a German spy! I am a Dutch woman, and a dancer. I have many friends in Germany, but that does not make me a spy."

"My exoticism was my shield, my beauty my weapon."
