Enemy at the Gates (2001)

Grandfather: I am a stone. I do not move. Very slowly, I put snow in my mouth. Then he won't see my breath. I take my time. I let him come closer. I have only one bullet. I aim at his eye. Very gently, my finger presses on the trigger. I do not tremble. I have no fear. I'm a big boy now. Ready Vassili? Now, Vassili, fire!

Nikita Khrushchev: My name is Nikita Sergeyevich Khrushchev. I've come to take things in hand here. This city is not Kursk, nor is it Kiev, nor Minsk. This city is Stalingrad. Stalingrad! This city bears the name of the boss. It's more than a city, it's a symbol. If the Germans capture this city, the entire country will collapse.

Commisar Danilov: What we need are heroes.
Nikita Khrushchev: Do you know any heroes around here?
Commisar Danilov: Yes, Comrade. I know one.

Commisar Danilov: A nobleman from Bavaria who hunts deer against the shepherd boy from the Urals who peaches wolves... It's more than a confrontation between two nations. It's the essence of class struggle.

Koulikov: That's right, boy, have no illusions. That's the land of socialism and universal bliss for you.

Koulikov: They don't give a shit about telephone guys. I mean, it's like us with the Ukrainians. They'd never bother a major over a few dead grunts. Tomorrow, we'll kill us some generals.

Nikita Khrushchev: Vodka is a luxury we have. Caviar is a luxury we have. Time is not.

Tania Chernova: You're Jewish, aren't you?
Commisar Danilov: ... There's nothing in our religion that says you can't eat sturgeon.
Tania Chernova: My father had a premonition all this would happen.
Commisar Danilov: You mean the war?
Tania Chernova: He understood that the hatred of the Jews ran deep. He was saving up to buy some land in Palestine. He said it was the only land that we truly belonged in. The only land we had a duty to defend.

Vassili: All these people here know they're gonna die, so each night when they make it back, it's a bonus. So every cup of tea, every cigarette, becomes a little celebration. Because for a lot of us, it may be our last night. It's just something you have to accept here. Everyone has their time.

Vassili: In the forest, the wolf lives for three years, the donkey for nine.

Vassili: Sad to have a dream you know won't happen.

Major König: He isn't dead. And do you know why? Because I haven't killed him yet.

Commisar Danilov: I've been such a fool, Vassili. Man will always be a man. There is no new man. We tried so hard to create a society that was equal, where there'd be nothing to envy your neighbor. But there's always something to envy. A smile, a friendship. Something you don't have and want to appropriate. In this world, even a Soviet one, there will always be rich and poor. Rich in gifts, poor in gifts. Rich in love, poor in love.
