Norwegian: Når en mann kan forårsake så mye ondt - tenk hvor mye kjærlighet vi kan skape sammen.

When one man could cause so much evil - think about how much love we can create together.

23 Jul 2011[2]

She was interviewed by CNN's Richard Quest on 23 July 2011 where she phrased the words "If one man can create that much hate, you can only imagine how much love we as a togetherness can create."[3] This phrase was later quoted by prime minister Jens Stoltenberg during the memorial service on Sunday 24 July 2011, attributed to "the AUF girl who was interviewed by CNN", slightly rephrased due to translation back in Norwegian (here in English translation): If one man can show so much hate, think how much love we could show together.[4][5][6]

According to Håheim herself in an interview with the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang she attributes the original formulation to a good friend, Helle Gannestad.[7]

Verdens Gang later updated the article The Love Message is Spreading in All Channels on 25 July 2011 with the information that the Love Quote correctly shall be attributed to Helle Gannestad, the good friend of Håheim.[8] The original phrasing in English translation is as follows: When one man could cause so much evil - think about how much love we can create together.[2]
