Soren Kierkegaard
Theology sits rouged at the window and courts philosophy's favor, offering to sell her charms to it.
Soren Kierkegaard

Soren Kierkegaard
Why I so much prefer autumn to spring is that in the autumn one looks at heaven--in the spring at the earth.
Soren Kierkegaard
The most common form of despair is not being who you are.
Soren Kierkegaard
If anyone on the verge of action should judge himself according to the outcome, he would never begin.
Soren Kierkegaard
Life can only be understood backwards but it must be lived forwards.
Soren Kierkegaard
... all comparisons injure.
Soren Kierkegaard
Comparison is the most dangerous acquaintance love can make.
Soren Kierkegaard
If I had a humble spirit in my service who, when I asked for a glass of water, brought me the world's costliest wines blended in a chalice, I should dismiss him, in order to teach him that my pleasure consists, not in what I enjoy, but in having my own way.
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
There is no greater evil one can suffer than to hate reasonable discourse.
Soren Kierkegaard
