Quotes 

• Astrid : Darling, have you seen the morning paper? I won! What do you say to that?

  Bo Swedenhielm : I'll never bet against you again, you clever fox.

  Astrid : [giggles]  That's probably a good idea.

• Astrid : Darling. Good morning.

  Rolf Swedenhielm : Good morning. It's good morning for the young ones - and good evening for the old ones.

• Rolf Swedenhielm : You don't sell one's birthright for a mess of pottage. Our honor is our birthright.

  Astrid : Yes, and I'm the pottage.

  Rolf Swedenhielm : Very tasty.

• Rolf Swedenhielm : Look at me! They've taken everything from me. My earnings, my glory, and my fortune. But there's one thing they can't take away from me: my honor. I've carried it in my hands like a precious treasure. I'll never let go of it. I was made out to be an unsuccessful genius and they've called me a madman. So what of it? This madman is happy anyway, because he carries his name with pride.

  Astrid : If Bo doesn't want me, I'll marry you instead.

• Marta Boman : One must take care of oneself, that's the best thing to do. And one should earn one's money by honest means. That's better in the long run.

  Astrid : Listen, Mammi. You sound more like the Swedenhielms than the Swedenhielms themselves.

• Astrid : You sure are a clever one.

  Bo Swedenhielm : What do you mean by that?

  Astrid : Your lips betray what your lips deny.
