Soren Kierkegaard
To love another person is to help them love God.
Soren Kierkegaard
Since boredom advances and boredom is the root of all evil, no wonder, then, that the world goes backwards, that evil spreads. This can be traced back to the very beginning of the world. The gods were bored therefore they created human beings.
Soren Kierkegaard
When you read God's Word, you must constantly be saying to yourself, It is talking to me, and about me.
