Take away paradox from the thinker and you have a professor.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
As the arrow, loosed from the bow by the hand of the practiced archer, does not rest till it has reached the mark, so men pass from God to God. He is the mark for which they have been created, and they do not rest till they find their rest in him.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
All moral elevation consists first and foremost of being weaned from the momentary.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image

Soren Kierkegaard
Image
...the reason for [this age's] anxiety and unrest is because in one direction, 'truth' increases in scope and quantity - via science and technology - while in the other, certainty and confidence steadily decline.

Soren Kierkegaard

Soren Kierkegaard

In the Christianity of Christendom the Cross has become something like the child’s hobby-horse and trumpet.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
Certainty... lurks at the door of faith and threatens to devour it.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
To be a saint is to will the one thing.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
When all combine in every way to make everything easier, people will want difficulty. I conceived it as my task to make difficulties everywhere.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
The most common form of despair is not being who you are.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
Christianity demands the crucifixion of the intellect.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
The self-assured believer is a greater sinner in the eyes of God than the troubled disbeliever.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
A good decision is our will to do everything we can within our power. It means to serve God with all we've got, be it little or much. Every person can do that.
Soren Kierkegaard
Image
Because of its tremendous solemnity death is the light in which great passions, both good and bad, become transparent, no longer limited by outward appearances.
