Take it and return it: the kiss of love.
Soren Kierkegaard
Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. Everything can be had so dirt cheap that one begins to wonder whether in the end anyone will want to make a bid.
Soren Kierkegaard
I found I had less and less to say, until finally, I became silent, and began to listen. I discovered in the silence, the voice of God
Soren Kierkegaard
Fate, then, is the nothing of anxiety.
Soren Kierkegaard
Now, with God's help, I shall become myself.
Soren Kierkegaard
Every mental act is composed of doubt and belief, but it is belief that is the positive, it is belief that sustains thought and holds the world together.
Soren Kierkegaard
Love is all, it gives all, and it takes all.
Soren Kierkegaard
Once you label me you negate me.
Soren Kierkegaard

Only one human being recognized as one's neighbour is necessary in order to cure a man of self-love
Soren Kierkegaard
Maturity consists in the discovery that there comes a critical moment where everything is reversed, after which the point becomes to understand more and more that there is something which cannot be understood.
Soren Kierkegaard
If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility!
Soren Kierkegaard
But doubt is wily and cunning and never, as it is sometimes said to be, loud or defiant. It is unassuming and sly, not bold or assertive - and the more unassuming, the more dangerous.
Soren Kierkegaard
It is perhaps the misfortune of my life that I am interested in far too much but not decisively in any one thing all my interests are not subordinated in one but stand on an equal footing.
Soren Kierkegaard
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.
Soren Kierkegaard
The paradox in Christian truth is invariably due to the fact that it is the truth that exists for God. The standard of measure and the end is superhuman and there is only one relationship possible: faith.
Soren Kierkegaard
The stone that was rolled before Christ's tomb might appropriately be called the philosopher's stone because its removal gave not only the pharisees but, now for 1800 years, the philosophers so much to think about.
Soren Kierkegaard
Faith is the highest passion in a man.
