Brendel Monologue from Rosmersholm

From Rosmersholm by Henrik Ibsen

male · inspirational · 42 sec

Does my own boy not know that wherever Ulrik Brendel stands he is always in earnest about it? Look here, I mean to become a new man now--to emerge from the cloak of reserve in which I have hitherto shrouded myself. (Rosmer: In what way?) I mean to take an active part in life--to step forward--to look higher. The atmosphere we breathe is heavy with storms. I want now to offer my mite upon the altar of emancipation. (Kroll: You too?) Has your public here any intimate acquaintance with my scattered writings?
