More quotes by Henrik Ibsen
It’s a release to know that in spite of everything a premeditated act of courage is still possible.
Henrik Ibsen
It is the very mark of the spirit of rebellion to crave for happiness in this life
Henrik Ibsen
Almost everyone who has gone to the bad early in life has had a deceitful mother.
Henrik Ibsen
One of the qualities of liberty is that, as long as it is being striven after, it goes on expanding. Therefore, the man who stands in the midst of the struggle and says, 'I have it,' merely shows by doing so that he has just lost it.
Henrik Ibsen
I propose to raise a revolution against the lie that the majority has the monopoly of the truth.
Henrik Ibsen
The worst that a man can do to himself is to do injustice to others.
Henrik Ibsen
Was the majority right when they stood by while Jesus was crucified? Was the majority right when they refused to believe that the earth moved around the sun and let Galileo be driven to his knees like a dog? It takes fifty years for the majority to be right. The majority is never right until it does right.
Henrik Ibsen
But a scientific man must live in a little bit of style.
Henrik Ibsen
I must make up my mind which is right – society or I.
Henrik Ibsen
Money brings you food, but not appetite medicine, but not health acquaintances, but not friends.
Henrik Ibsen
The man-at-arms is the only man.
Henrik Ibsen
The spirit of truth and the spirit of freedom-they are the pillars of society.
Henrik Ibsen
HELMER But this is disgraceful. Is this the way you neglect your most sacred duties? NORA: What do you consider is my most sacred duty? HELMER: Do I have to tell you that? Isn't it your duty to your husband and children? NORA:I have another duty, just as sacred. HELMER: You can't have. What duty do you mean? NORA: My duty to myself.
Henrik Ibsen
I'm afraid for all those who'll have the bread snatched from their mouths by these machines. What business has science and capitalism got, bringing all these new inventions into the works, before society has produced a generation educated up to using them!
Henrik Ibsen
Oh, yes--you can shout me down, I know! But you cannot answer me. The majority has might on its side--unfortunately but right it has not.
Henrik Ibsen
Our whole being is nothing but a fight against the dark forces within ourselves.
Henrik Ibsen
In great memories there lies the seed of growth.
Henrik Ibsen
This is life! It can harden and it can exalt!
Henrik Ibsen
The devil is compromise.
Henrik Ibsen
I am sticking as closely to my subject as I can for my subject is precisely this, that it is the masses, the majority
