Soren Kierkegaard thoughts
- A man who as a physical being is always turned toward the outside, thinking that his happiness lies outside him, finally turns inward and discovers that the source is within him.
- Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom.
- Be that self which one truly is.
- Boredom is the root of all evil - the despairing refusal to be oneself.
- Don't forget to love yourself.
- During the first period of a man's life the greatest danger is not to take the risk.
- Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are.
- Faith is the highest passion in a human being. Many in every generation may not come that far, but none comes further.
- Far from idleness being the root of all evil, it is rather the only true good.
- God creates out of nothing. Wonderful you say. Yes, to be sure, but he does what is still more wonderful: he makes saints out of sinners.
- How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have. They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.
- If I am capable of grasping God objectively, I do not believe, but precisely because I cannot do this I must believe.
- It is so hard to believe because it is so hard to obey.
- It seems essential, in relationships and all tasks, that we concentrate only on what is most significant and important.
