Quotes by Arne Garborg

“To love a person is to learn the song that is in their heart and to sing it to them when they have forgotten.”

“For money you can have everything it is said. No, that is not true. You can buy food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; soft beds, but not sleep; knowledge but not intelligence; glitter, but not comfort; fun, but not pleasure; acquaintances, but not friendship; servants, but not faithfulness; grey hair, but not honor; quiet days, but not peace. The shell of all things you can get for money. But not the kernel. That cannot be had for money.”

“Norwegian Arne Garborg was nominated for the Nobel Prize in literature six times. He said “To love a person is to learn the song that is in their heart, and to sing it to them when they have forgotten it.”
