Answer 1

Read this excerpt from A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen.
Nora: More than anyone else. I know you are my truest and best friend, and so I will tell you what it is. Well, Dr. Rank, it is something you must help me to prevent. You know how devotedly, how inexpressibly deeply Torvald loves me; he would never for a moment hesitate to give his life for me.
Rank: (Leaning towards her) Nora, do you think he is the only one?
Nora: (With a slight start) The only one?
Rank: The only one who would gladly give his life for your sake.
Nora: (Sadly) Is that it?
Rank: I was determined you should know it before I went away, and there will never be a better opportunity than this. Now you know it, Nora. And now you know, too, that you can trust me as you can trust no one else.
Nora: (Rises, deliberately and quietly) Let me pass.
Rank: (Makes room for her to pass him, but sits still) Nora.
