„I didn’t have any time for hobbies – only for work. My only hobbies were eating and sleeping! I eat everything, and finish everything!“

Favourite dish: „potato pancakes!“

My happiest moment: „I forgot, it’s been too long!“

„Whenever music was played, my knees would shake, and then it would go round and round! An admirer called Lorenz rode his bike 20 kilometres every day just to see me. He was then splattered all over with dirt!“

My recipe for a long life: „I like to laugh a lot!“

„There’s a lot of bungling in life, you have to muddle through!“

„Everyone loves me and they let me live.“

My happiest moment: „I forgot, it’s been too long!“
