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.
