Answer: Here are three quotes from the play that show insults directed toward Nora by Torvald:
1. "You're a child, Nora. A child who doesn't even know what is good for her." (Act 1)
2. "No, Nora, you're not fit to be the mistress of this house. You're not fit to have the care of the children. You're not fit to do anything that's serious. You're a doll." (Act 2)
3. "You're not much of a homemaker, Nora. You're like a flighty little featherhead, a mere plaything." (Act 3)
