"Fanny and Alexander" Sommarens händelser (TV Episode 1983) - Ewa Fröling as Emilie Ekdahl

Emilie Ekdahl : How could I be so blind? How could I feel compassion for that man? I'm an actress. I should have seen through his pretense.
Emilie Ekdahl : I saw nothing, understood nothing. He spoke to me of another life. A life of demands, of purity, of joy in the performance of duty. I'd never heard such words. There seemed to be a light around him when he spoke to me. At the same time, I could tell he was lonely, unhappy, haunted by fear and bad dreams. He assured me I would save him. He said together with the children we'd live in nearness of God. In the truth. The truth - that was the most important part. I was so thirsty. I know it sounds dramatic and overstrung, Helena, but I thirsted for truth and felt I'd been living a lie.
Emilie Ekdahl : I am shut in and can no longer breathe. I'm dying, Helena! I hate that man so violently.
Bishop Edvard Vergérus : Punishment given out of love can never be humiliating in the deeper sense. Love and respect have nothing in common, and the language of love can be rather harsh.

Emilie Ekdahl : [with disdain] You're one to speak of love.
Emilie Ekdahl : You don't frighten me.

Bishop Edvard Vergérus : I must frighten you, Emilie. But I do so with a heavy heart, since I love you in spite of everything. You're not strong, Emilie.
Emilie Ekdahl : I could kill you.

Bishop Edvard Vergérus : Emilie. You'll harm the baby with thoughts like that.

Emilie Ekdahl : Our baby will never be born.
