Quotes

  • [on why he initially trained as a policeman] The only shining light in my family was my uncle. He was head of the foreigners police in Berlin and he prevented my then budding racism. He knew a lot of Turkish people and dragged me along through their shops in Kreuzberg. I thought this was great. He was an idol for me. I thought if I became a policeman I could become as cool as him.
  • [in an incredulous tone of voice] Why is there no Kölsch [in the fridge backstage, which instead was filled with other beer brands]? We are in Cologne!
  • I treat all animals with respect and would never think of wrapping myself in a coat made of animal fur. Those who think the look is cool will find enough alternatives for which no animal had to suffer.
  • I would not say that I experimented with drugs. I took them. For the effect.
