Talk
- “Birger. I fish. Well. I sit by a hole. Fishing's what they call it when you're lucky.”
- “Ulf comes in the hut to get out of the wind. He sits. I sit. Neither of us talks. Best friend I've got. I think. We've never discussed it.”
- “People ask if I get cold. I say, I'm from up here. They say, so you're used to it. I say, no. I'm just from up here.”
- “My wife packs me a lunch every morning. Same lunch, thirty-one years. Bread and a note. The note says come home. I eat the bread.”
- “You drill a hole, you wait. Nothing bites, you wait some more. Something bites, well. Then you've got to do something. That's the worst part.”
When you walk off mid-sentence
- “Okay then. I'll be here. I'm always here.”
- “Go on. The fish aren't going anywhere either.”
- “Yep. That's how most talks go out here.”
