August Strindberg Quotes
«Why is it so painful to watch a person sink? Because there is something unnatural in it, for nature demands personal progress, evolution, and every backward step means wasted energy.»
«People are constantly clamoring for the joy of life. As for me, I find the joy of life in the hard and cruel battle of life - to learn something is a joy to me.»
«Family... the home of all social evil, a charitable institution for comfortable women, an anchorage for house-fathers, and a hell for children.»
«The hood-winked husband shows his anger, and the word jealous is flung in his face. Jealous husband equals betrayed husband. And there are women who look upon jealousy as synonymous with impotence, so that the betrayed husband can only shut his eyes, powerless in the face of such accusations.»
«Friendship can only exist between persons with similar interests and points of view. Man and woman by the conventions of society are born with different interests and different points of view.»
«That is the thankless position of the father in the family-the provider for all, and the enemy of all.»
«Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.»
«I hated her now with a hatred more fatal than indifference because it was the other side of love.»
