It’s a release to know that in spite of everything a premeditated act of courage is still possible. - Henrik Ibsen

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

HELMER: — To forsake your home, your husband, and your children! You don’t consider what the world will say.
NORA: — I can pay no heed to that. I only know what I must do.
HELMER: — It is exasperating! Can you forsake your holiest duties in this world?
NORA: — What do you call my holiest duties?
HELMER: — Do you ask me that? Your duties to your husband and your children.
NORA: — I have other duties equally sacred.
HELMER: — Impossible! What duties do you mean?
NORA: — My duties towards myself.
HELMER: — Before all else you are a wife and a mother.
NORA: — That I no longer believe. I think that before all else I am a human being, just as much as you are — or at least I will try to become one.

Ja, tænke det; ønske det; ville det med;
men gjøre det! Nej, det skjønner jeg ikke!
