‘I liked it a lot better in Lichterfelde. I was no longer so cut off from the world and began to live a little more as a person. My favourite memories from Lichterfelde are the big corso games, where I fought a lot with and against Prince Friedrich Karl. The prince won many a first prize back then. In races, football matches, etc. against me, who had not trained my body to such perfection as he had.’
