Marriage
|
|
A marriage based on full confidence, based on complete and unqualified frankness on both sides; they are not keeping anything back; there's no deception underneath it all. If I might so put it, it's an agreement for the mutual forgiveness of sin.
-Henrik Ibsen

Minorities
|
|
|
A minority may be right, and a majority is always wrong.
-Henrik Ibsen

Money
|
|

Money may be the husk of many things, but not the kernel. It brings you food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; acquaintances, but not friends; servants, but not faithfulness; days of joy, but not peace and happiness.
-Henrik Ibsen

Respect

Your home is regarded as a model home, your life as a model life. But all this splendor, and you along with it... it's just as though it were built upon a shifting quagmire. A moment may come, a word can be spoken, and both you and all this splendor will collapse.
-Henrik Ibsen

Independence

The strongest man in the world is he who stands alone.

Sin

Really to sin you have to be serious about it.

Society

The spirit of truth and the spirit of freedom -- these are the pillars of society.

In that second it dawned on me that I had been living here for eight years with a strange man and had borne him three children.

Marriage
|
|
|
In your power, all the same. Subject to your will and your demands. No longer free! No! That's a thought I'll never endure! Never.
-Henrik Ibsen

Words

A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.
