Helmer: Before all else, you are a wife and a mother. Nora: I don't believe that any longer. I believe that before all else I am
a reasonable human being, just as you are—or, at all events, that I must try and become one. I know quite well, Torvald, that most people would think you right, and that views of that kind are to be found in books; but I can no longer content myself with what most people say, or with what is found in books. I must think over things for myself and get to understand them. –A Doll's House, Henrik Ibsen Which lines support the theme "Living a lie is not living at all"? Check all that apply. A. "Most people would think you right." B. "Views of that kind are to be found in books." C. "I can no longer content myself with what most people say." D. "I must think over things for myself and get to understand them." E. "Before all else, you are a wife."
<u>D. "I must think over things for myself and get to understand them."</u>
Explanation:
Living by what other people say, or think and what books say is living a lie because it is not based on what the character really thinks or wants.
Thinking thinks over by herself is being truthfull to the ideas and wishes she can built, and no longer by what other people tell her to do. Being more than a wife and a mother, means there is more to Nora in life than those things.
