• ‟ Stockholm is unique in that it's built on islands and surrounded by water, so you get this enormous sense of freedom. It's got everything you could possibly need - everything New York or London has but without all the people and traffic. It's also become a very creative city, not only for music but also for fashion and computer games.

  - Bjorn Ulvaeus
  

• ‟ The music of ABBA is not that happy. It might sound happy, in some strange way, but deep within, it's not happy music. It has that Nordic melancholic feeling to it. What fools you is the girls' voices. You know, I do think that is one of the secrets about ABBA. Even when we were really quite sad, we always sounded jubilant.

  - Bjorn Ulvaeus
  

• ‟ In the beginning of my career, I wanted to be chased by girls more than anything - that's why I got the guitar. By the time we were in ABBA, the music was the only important thing.

  - Bjorn Ulvaeus
  

• ‟ Everyone should pursue whatever is original in oneself. That's the way for a long life in music.

  - Bjorn Ulvaeus
