telling birgitte’s story: 3x02 - The Land is Built on Law
“I can’t help questioning the Denmark I’m seeing. Are we inhospitable? Are we bigoted? Are we arrogant? Devoid of solidarity? Is that us? As Danes? As a people? The answer is a bellowing no, if you ask the New Democrats. But that’s the picture our legislation paints of us. The message we send to the world and to each other. We want to restore our pride in being Danish.”

“There’s something I ought to have told you ages ago. I just couldn’t. And it upsets me because I don’t like keeping secrets from you. But now I’m going to have to tell you.”

telling birgitte’s story: 3x08 - If You Change Your Mind
“I can’t take any more people being worried about me. I don’t have enough hours in the day. I don’t have enough time to be a mediocre girlfriend, a bit of a mum, and fight an election.”
