More quotes by Henrik Ibsen
When we dead awaken ... we see that we have never lived.
Henrik Ibsen
Don't use that foreign word: ideals. We have the excellent native word: lies.
Henrik Ibsen
You see, there are some people that one loves, and others that perhaps one would rather be with.
Henrik Ibsen
What's to become of the morally sound? Left out in the cold, I suppose. We must heal the sick.
Henrik Ibsen
Almost everyone who has gone to the bad early in life has had a deceitful mother.
Henrik Ibsen
Take the life-lie away from the average man and straight away you take away his happiness.
Henrik Ibsen
In the decisive moment I won the victory over myself. I chose to live. And believe me, it takes courage to choose life under those circumstances.
Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen
It's such sport with these heroes of finance: they are like beads on a string — when one slips off, all the rest follow.
Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen
I'm plotting revolution against this lie that the majority has a monopoly of the truth. What are these truths that always bring the majority rallying round? Truths so elderly they are practically senile. And when a truth is as old as that, gentlemen, you can hardly tell it from a lie.
Henrik Ibsen
The majority never has right on its side.
Henrik Ibsen
You don't get nothing for nothing in this life.
Henrik Ibsen
Friends are to be feared, not so much for what they make us do as what they keep us from doing.
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
Henrik Ibsen
There can be no freedom or beauty about a home life that depends on borrowing and debt.
Henrik Ibsen
Our whole being is nothing but a fight against the dark forces within ourselves.
Henrik Ibsen
Look into any man's heart you please, and you will always find, in every one, at least one black spot which he has to keep concealed.
Henrik Ibsen
It is the very mark of the spirit of rebellion to crave for happiness in this life
