Quotes6

  • Lundgren: Have you had an education? It's not all that easy. You have to make an effort. Why do some people put their knives in their mouths? They lack education. Why do others wipe their feet on the doormat? They're educated. You can spot an educated man right off. He's well-groomed. Have you read Strindberg's work?
  • Olof Persson: Not everything he's written.
  • Lundgren: That would be asking too much. I haven't read it all myself. I'm reading a book about Strindberg. It's about his life and adventures both in Sweden and abroad. A person should be familiar with Strindberg.
  • Olof Persson: You get fed up with movies. What I really like is philosophy. Like Nietzsche's views on women. They may be harsh, but they have depth.
  • Fredrik: When I used to drink, my dazed senses could make me believe in violence. That's changed. You need to keep a clear head, you know. I've given up smoking and drinking. My only habits are coffee and women. Women, every last one of them...
  • Olof Persson: What about them?
  • Fredrik: I never leave a woman untouched. Both in Norway and here at home, I've had my share. Even some in high places. I don't go to hookers, I have steady girlfriends. To take care of my body. You don't make them pregnant, though. An enlightened man takes precautions.
  • Olof Persson: A global revolution is the only way.
  • Fredrik: Unless the clergy stands in our way.
  • Olof Persson: True, many of the atrocities of war lie at their doorstep. And clergymen and military men lead working men to the slaughter, but I don't think they'll obstruct its course.
  • Fredrik: It I wasn't an anarchist, I'd propose that all clergymen be put to death. But I'm against bloodshed of any kind in principle. Neither a man nor a penny to the military. Persuasion is the only way.
  • Olof Persson: What if they won't budge?
  • Fredrik: I have one thing to say. When the people revolt, the clergy will not be able to hold them back. In theory, that is.
  • Lundgren: I've heard you sell papers while you put up playbills. I hope it's not "The War Cry".
  • Olof Persson: No, it's not "The War Cry."
  • Lundgren: I have nothing against socialist rags, but there is a limit. I'm a radical myself, but you should never mix business and politics. Keep in mind that you represent my company.
  • Olof Persson: Comrades, you have founded this society to prove that all human beings are one and make up mankind. Everyone is special. And you are special. Everything depends on you, the individual. Because only you are you. But man cannot survive on his own. You need to have faith in the worth and worthiness of others. In their - in their methods. And in their ability to create happiness in the face of misery. You stand here as an individual. You are what you are. But you need to connect with the others. It's vital. Right.
