If you live for weekends or vacations, your shit is broken.
Sometimes it’s strange being me. I travel the world meeting people, I’m surrounded with friends and my life is full, but all the time I am confronted by a young man I have nothing in common with. He is me, but he is not me now. In fact I have been me now for longer than I was him, but no one wants to know about me.
I’ve never tried that before, so I can probably do it well!
I’ve never given myself a lot of credit because of my relationship with Ike. I was just happy when I started to like myself – when I got divorced and took control of my life.
Grief is the price we pay for love.
Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired at the age of eighteen.
Do you ever miss yourself? The person you were before you had your first heartbreak or before you got betrayed by a person you trusted? I do.
Of course, I have nothing against the language changing, but there must be reasonableness in it, so that it does not become a mere gas can. On the other hand, new words are sometimes added that I wouldn’t do without – for example, “smug”. It’s my new favorite word. It’s a wonderfully oily word, a precise word that covers a certain type of person with a high degree of self-confidence in their own abilities.
The early bird catches the worm. The early worm gets eaten.
Don’t prepare the path for the child, prepare the child for the path.
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.
If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.
It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to cherish is much more difficult.
Suicide is never the answer. You must outlive your enemies.
Bad publicity is better than no publicity at all
If they want to be with sour and awkward people during their vacation, well, then they should probably choose another travel agency.
You may have had fun at the time teasing, but in fact it wasn’t much fun to be teased. But I thank you, somewhere, for having done it, because it made me take up something that I love to this day – and that no one, then or now, can take me away from.
All footballers are motivated by money – those who say otherwise are lying.
I was raised in a free and liberal home. I have never felt threatened by other cultures, other colors or other ways of thinking. In 30 years, there will be more and more colors in the minds of the people who walk around our streets. And we want to move around a lot more ourselves. It is also necessary that we open up if we are to remain strong at that time.
I only earn 11 kroner per trip I sell, but it also becomes a part when I sell a million trips a year.
I am a bourgeois, but I am not a Left-woman. I was born a bourgeois, and I have always tried not to stand on a pedestal and say that I am a worker. That would be false talk. Nor during the many years when the red hirelings were around and held their noses at the thought of “Matador” and everything else I did. I’m not a peasant either. I was born a bourgeois, but that is why I can criticise the bourgeoisie and their shabby schemes, which I can easily see through.
If someone offers you an amazing opportunity and you’re not sure you can do it, say yes – then learn how to do it later.
