Additional quotes by Henrik Ibsen

Jeg har en sånn umåtelig lyst til å si: død og pine.

Someone has said – or is it written
somewhere – I don't remember where,
that if you conquer all the world
yet lose your Self, all that you gain is
a wreath around your broken skull
– or words to that effect. That text
is by no means poetic nonsense.

The great task of our time is to blow up all existing institutions — to destroy.
