Mit dir geteilt
- Hans Axgil: [to Lili] I've only liked a handful of people in my life, and you've been two of them.
- Gerda Wegener: I need to see Einar.
- Lili Elbe: Let me help, please.
- Gerda Wegener: I need my husband, can you get him?
- Lili Elbe: I can't.
- Gerda Wegener: I need to talk to my husband, and I need to hold my husband. Can you at least try?
- Lili Elbe: I'm sorry.
- Einar Wegener: I love you, because you are the only person who made sense of me. And made me, possible.
- Lili Elbe: How have I ever deserved such love? There's nothing to be afraid of anymore.
- Gerda Wegener: No.
- Lili Elbe: Last night I had the most beautiful dream. I dreamed that I was a baby in my mother's arms. And she looked down at me, and she called me Lili.

- Gerda Wegener: [to Hans as her scarf is carried away on the wind] No, leave it. Let it fly.
- Gerda Wegener: We went for coffee, and after... I kissed him. And it was the strangest thing. It was like kissing myself.
- Gerda Wegener: It's hard for a man to be looked at by a woman. Women are used to it, of course, but for a man to submit to a woman's gaze - it's unsettling. Although I believe there's some pleasure to be had from it, once you yield.
- Hans Axgil: We were fooling around in the kitchen. Einar was wearing his grandmother's apron. We were just little boys, you know, playing around? Anyway, Einar just looked so pretty and... I had to kiss him! So, yes, I kissed Einar.
- Einar Wegener: There was a moment when I was just Lili, and I think that he could see that. Do you see?
- Gerda Wegener: But Lili doesn't exist. We made her up.
- Lili Elbe: I think that marriage is the single thing we should all hope for in life.
- Hans Axgil: Really?
- Lili Elbe: It creates someone else. More than just the two of you. Yes, I think it'd be terrible not to...
- Einar Wegener: I was different.
- Hans Axgil: It didn't take much to be different in Vejle. Surely that's why we became friends.
- Einar Wegener: Every morning I promised myself that I will spend the entire day as Einar. But there's so little of Einar left.
- Hans Axgil: You think these things because you're exhausted.
- Einar Wegener: Sometimes I think about killing Einar. But it's only the thought that I'd be killing Lili too that stops me.
- Warnekros: Mrs. Wegener, I do believe I can help your husband. But he won't be your husband when I've finished.
- [first lines]
- American Woman: Don't you wish you could paint like that? Oh, I'm sorry? I said, don't you wish you could paint like your husband? Really. You must be so proud of him. So elegant.
- Einar Wegener: Gerda, this can't be right.
- Dr. Hexler: Radiation is a miracle, Mr. Wegener. It destroys the bad and saves the good.
- Gerda Wegener: For a man to, um, submit to a woman's gaze is, er, unsettling... Although I believe there is some pleasure to be had by it - once you, ah, yield.
