Quotes by Carl Frode Tiller (?)

“Det var ikkje berre mamma som forlét verda denne augustdagen i 1989, den mannen eg hadde vore så lenge eg og du og ho hadde kjent kvarandre, forlét også verda. For det er banalt, men sant: når det ikkje lenger finnest nokon som kan dokumentere livet vårt, når det ikkje lenger finnest nokon som kan fortelje dei muntre historiene om kor sta eller morgongretne vi er, når vi ikkje lenger har nokon til å le når vi er morsame eller bli sinte når vi er sure, når vi ikkje lenger har nokon til å minne oss på kven vi er og når vi ikkje lenger har nokon til å oppmuntre oss til å vere den vi kan vere, da går vi i oppløysing og blir borte.”

“while it was all right to disagree with something, you should never argue; it was even all right to get annoyed or angry, but it really wasn’t done to raise your voice. All fluctuations in mood and tone had somehow to be played down and smoothed out, not only the troughs, but the crests as well. It was great to be happy, but you didn’t need to make a song and dance about it, so to speak, a smile was sufficient. And if, even so, someone did get carried away, the others would fall ostentatiously quiet for a few seconds, or they would smile pleasantly, then change the subject completely.”

“Most of the members of the Christian community seemed to do their utmost to appear as gentle and kind and full of brotherly love as possible, as if dead set on reminding themselves of how much they cared about one another. At your house I had the feeling that while it was all right to disagree with something, you should never argue; it was even all right to get annoyed or angry, but it really wasn’t done to raise your voice. All fluctuations in mood and tone had somehow to be played down and smoothed out, not only the troughs, but the crests as well. It was great to be happy, but you didn’t need to make a song and dance about it, so to speak, a smile was sufficient. And if, even so, someone did get carried away, the others would fall ostentatiously quiet for a few seconds, or they would smile pleasantly, then change the subject completely. But despite, or maybe because of, this unspoken insistence on constant self-control, violent emotional outbursts did occasionally occur”
