‘I’m inclined to think that we’re all ghosts; it’s not only the things that we’ve inherited from our fathers & mothers that live on in us, but all sorts of old dead ideas & old dead beliefs, & things of that sort. They’re not actually alive in us, but they’re rooted there all the same, & we can’t rid ourselves of them. I’ve only to pick up a newspaper, & when I read it I seem to see ghosts all over the country – as countless as grains of sand. And we are, all of us, so pitifully afraid of the light.’
Henrik Ibsen
(Ghosts)
‘I am going to see if I can make out who is right, the world or I.’
