- The Examiner: Loneliness.
- Professor Isak Borg: Loneliness?
- The Examiner: Precisely.
- Professor Isak Borg: Is there no mercy?

- Professor Isak Borg: Is it serious?
- The Examiner: Unfortunately, Professor.

- The Examiner: My verdict.
- Professor Isak Borg: And that is?
- The Examiner: That you are incompetent.
- Professor Isak Borg: Incompetent?
- The Examiner: You are also accused of some minor but still serious offenses. Callousness, selfishness, ruthlessness. Your wife has made the charge.

- The Examiner: A doctor's first duty is to ask for forgiveness.
- Mrs. Alman: Darling, you might have a stroke.
- Sten Alman: My wife likes ridiculing me. I let her. It's psychotherapy.
- Sten Alman: [after a car accident] Are you all right? I have no excuse. It's all our fault. My wife was driving. Are you all right?
