More quotes by Henrik Ibsen
What sort of truths are they that the majority usually supports? They are truths that are of such advanced age that they are beginning to break up. And if a truth is as old as that, it is also in a fair way to become a lie, gentlemen.
Henrik Ibsen
It is not by spectacular achievements that man can be transformed, but by will.
Henrik Ibsen
It’s a release to know that in spite of everything a premeditated act of courage is still possible.
Henrik Ibsen
Money may be the husk of many things but not the kernel. It brings you food, but not appetite medicine, but not health acquaintance, but not friends servants, but not loyalty days of joy, but not peace or happiness.
Henrik Ibsen
When we dead awaken ... we see that we have never lived.
Henrik Ibsen
So to conduct one's life as to realize oneself-this seems to me the highest attainment possible to a human being. It is the task of one and all of us, but most of us bungle it.
Henrik Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen
The majority is always wrong the minority is rarely right.
Henrik Ibsen
Money brings you food, but not appetite medicine, but not health acquaintances, but not friends.
Henrik Ibsen
A friend married is a friend lost.
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
Nothing is impossible that one desires with an indomitable will.
Henrik Ibsen
Take the life-lie away from the average man and straight away you take away his happiness.
Henrik Ibsen
It's not only what we have inherited from our father and mother that walks in us. It's all sorts of dead ideas, and lifeless old beliefs, and so forth. They have no vitality, but they cling to us all the same, and we can't get rid of them.
Henrik Ibsen
You have never loved me. You have only thought it pleasant to be in love with me.
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
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
A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.
Henrik Ibsen
In great memories there lies the seed of growth.
Henrik Ibsen
Oh courage...oh yes! If only one had that...Then life might be livable, in spite of everything.
Henrik Ibsen
