Antonia's Line (1995)

Lineke Rijxman: Verteller (Narrator)

Quotes 

• Verteller : The proverb is wrong. Time does not heal all wounds. It merely softens the pain and blurs the memories.

• Verteller : [First lines]  Even before the sun had risen, Antonia knew that her days were numbered. She knew more than that, she knew that this would be her last day. Not that she felt unwell. But, unlike others, Antonia knew when enough was enough.

• Verteller : "Like seeks like," Antonia said.

• Verteller : Days turned into weeks, then into years. Antonia planted, Danielle painted, the fields turned green, then brown again.
