- I'm probably the last Norwegian to ask about quotes by Bj°rnson (or Bjoernson
- in the 7-bit character set), but I'll try a mediocre translation:
-
- He who has dreamed of journey and deed does not lower his sail without
- sorrow.
-
- To any feminist out there: The original contains nothing specific to the male
- gender. It could also be "She who..."
-
- I shouldn't even be here. I only got interested because of the cross-posting
- to soc.culture.nordic.
