Quote by Gro Dahle

“Ja, jeg har lyst til å være en atypisk kvinne. En tykk dame, som kan være et motstykke til sylfidene. Eller en rar kvinne som kan være et motstykke til dem som er pene på håret.”

“Jeg er Menneskelig (Sonett) Du spurte, hva er min nasjon, Jeg sier det er menneskelighet. Du spurte, hva er språket mitt, Jeg sier det er godhet. Du spurte, hva er min kultur, Jeg sier det er vennlighet. Du spurte, hva er min tradisjon, Jeg sier det er ydmykhet. Du spurte, hva er kjønnet mitt, Jeg sier det er tapperhet. Du spurte, hva er min religion, Jeg sier det er uselviskhet. Du spurte alt bortsett fra målet mitt i livet. Jeg sier deg nå, det er for å forene universet.”

“Nothing is more tedious than to talk with persons who treat your most obvious remarks as startling paradoxes and Edward suffered likewise from that passion for argument which is the bad talkers’ substitution for conversation. People who cannot talk are always proud of their dialectic. They want to modify your tritest observations and even if you suggest the day is fine, insist on arguing it out.”

“...Plato conceived of philosophy as necessarily gregarious rather than solitary. The exposure of presumptions is best done in company, the more argumentative the better. This is why discussion around the table is so essential. This is why philosophy must be argumentative. It proceeds by way of arguments, and the arguments are argued over. Everything is aired in the bracing dialectic wind stirred by many clashing viewpoints. Only in this way can intuitions that have their source in societal or personal idiosyncrasies be exposed and questioned. ... There can be nothing like "Well, that's what I was brought up to believe," or "I just feel that it's right," or "I am privy to an authoritative voice whispering in my ear," or "I'm demonstrably smarter than all of you, so just accept that I know better here." The discussion around the seminar table countenances only the sorts of arguments and considerations that can, in principle, make a claim on everyone who signs on to the project of reason: appealing to, evaluating, and being persuaded by reasons. (pp. 38-39)”
