- Sven-August: [Kristian is hunting mice with an axe] Kristian? She was running around the house.
- Kristian: You saw the mouse?
- Sven-August: Mouse? She was wearing a dress.
- Krister: I say like he who sat depressed over a beer: "Buying flowers for your wife... That's like buying cheese for a mousetrap that's closed."
- [about the moose hunt]
- Kristian: Wonder where I'll be hunting later?
- Sven-August: Go to the old oak.
- Kristian: The oak? There are no mooses there.
- Sven-August: "No mooses"? Gustav shot two ones last fall.
- Kristian: Well, they're dead now, aren't they?
