Marianne: Sometimes it's like husband and wife are talking on telephones that are out of order.
-
Johan: You need to put a lot of effort into not caring.
-
Marianne: We're pitiful, self-indulgent cowards that can't connect with reality and are ashamed of ourselves.
-
Johan: Affection shouldn't be kept just for vacations.
-
Johan: We're emotional illiterates. We've been taught about anatomy and farming methods in Africa. We've learned mathematical formulas by heart. But we haven't been taught a thing about our souls. We're tremendously ignorant about what makes people tick.
-
Marianne: Sometimes it grieves me that I have never loved anyone. I don't think I've ever been loved either. It really distresses me.
-
Johan: I don't know what my love looks like, and I can't describe it. Most of the time I can't feel it.
-
Marianne: Are we living in utter confusion?
Johan: You and I?
Marianne: No, all of us.
Johan: What do you mean?
Marianne: I'm talking about fear, uncertainty and ignorance.Do you think that secretly we're afraid we're slipping downhill and don't know what to do?
Johan: Yes, I think so.
Marianne: Is it too late?
Johan: Yes. But we shouldn't say things like that. Only think them.
Marianne: Have we missed something important?
Johan: All of us?
Marianne: Yes...

Marianne: I felt inadequate at work and at home, and I was a washout in bed too. I was hedged in by all the griping and endless demands! Goddamn you! Was it so strange that I used sex for leverage? I was outnumbered, having to fight you, both sets of parents and society! When I think about what I endured, I could scream! I tell you this: never again! You sit there whining about conspiracies. Well, it serves you right! I hope you'll have it rammed down your throat that you're a useless parasite.
Johan: You're being utterly grotesque!
Marianne: So what? That's what I've become!
-
Marianne: Sometimes you ask such goddamn silly questions.
Johan: Sorry. Are you angry with me?
Marianne: I'm not angry, but I'm on the verge of tears. The trouble with me is that I can't get angry. I wish that for once in my life I could really lose my temper, as I sometimes feel I have every right to. I think it would change my life. But that's not the point. You spoke earlier about loneliness. That bit about being strong on your own. I don't believe in your gospel of isolation.I think it's a sign of weakness.
Johan: What's wrong, Marianne?
Marianne: It's so... humbling.
Johan: What's humbling?
Marianne: I think about you... and I think about myself and about the future. I can't see how you're going to cope without me. Sometimes I think in desperation, "I must look after Johan. He's my responsibility. It's up to me to make sure he's all right. That's the only our lives will be worthwhile."
Marianne: I don't believe people are strong all on their own. You have to have someone's hand to hold.
Scenes from a Marriage Quotes

This is the encyclopedia of marriage. After reading it, I think marriage is horrible. This design itself is based on the premise of suppressing people's nature of attracting the opposite sex. Sex always precedes love, at least the two are not completely synchronized. Men and women often share different dreams and use each other's bodies to satisfy their own desires. So what about love, love? Where? The people who are most devastated are those who trust it the most and yearn for it the most.

When the male protagonist faced the divorce agreement and cried out in tears, I found that I depended on you more than I thought, I needed a family, I needed a normal life, I couldn't help but sigh over and over again, this is Bergman. ! It's too delicate to be cruel!
