Alexandra Maria Lara Quotes
I don't remember [when I first visited the Berlin Zoological Garden]. To me, it was important that [in Germany] I could drink Coca Cola. In Romania, my father had bought me a bottle every now and then. To me, that was something really special. And mom and dad always told me, 'We are going somewhere you can drink as much Coke as you want'. To this day, Coke means so much more to me.
