More quotes by Soren Kierkegaard
The deepest form of despair is to choose to be another than himself.
Soren Kierkegaard
God is present in the moment of choice, not in order to watch but in order to be chosen. Therefore, each person must choose. Terrible is the battle, in a person's innermost being, between God and the world. The crowning risk involved lies in the possession of choice.
Soren Kierkegaard
The door to happiness opens outward.
Soren Kierkegaard
The question of immortality is of its nature not a scholarly question. It is a question welling up from the interior which the subject must put to itself as it becomes conscious of itself.
Soren Kierkegaard
Dread is a sympathetic antipathy and an antipathetic sympathy.
Soren Kierkegaard
The reign of the tyrant ends with his death, and the reign of the martyr starts with it.
Soren Kierkegaard
Faith is the highest passion in a man.
Soren Kierkegaard
With respect to physical existence, one needs little, and to the degree that one needs less, the more perfect one is.
Soren Kierkegaard
Choose to be who you are. . . The individual who would become a person must at some point take over his entire being - must, that is, choose herself.
Soren Kierkegaard
The most terrible fight is not when there is one opinion against another, the most terrible is when two men say the same thing -- and fight about the interpretation, and this interpretation involves a difference of quality.
Soren Kierkegaard
The tyrant dies and his rule is over, the martyr dies and his rule begins.
Soren Kierkegaard
I have, I believe, the courage to doubt everything I have, I believe, the courage to fight against everything but I do not have the courage to acknowledge anything, the courage to possess, to own anything.
Soren Kierkegaard
It is intelligent to ask two questions: (1) Is it possible? (2) Can I do it?. But it is unintelligent to ask these questions: (1) Is it real? (2) Has my neighbor done it?
Soren Kierkegaard
There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true the other is to refuse to believe what is true.
Soren Kierkegaard
Theology sits rouged at the window and courts philosophy's favor, offering to sell her charms to it.
Soren Kierkegaard
One could construe the life of man as a great discourse in which the various people represent different parts of speech (the same might apply to states).
Soren Kierkegaard
In the deepest sense, the being in a state of sin is the sin, the particular sins are not the continuation of sin, they are expressions of its continuation.
Soren Kierkegaard
Absolute passion cannot be understood by a third party.
Soren Kierkegaard
The more men believe an idea to be true the greater the likelihood that the idea is mistaken. Those who are right usually stand alone.
Soren Kierkegaard
The great trick with a woman is to get rid of her while she think's she's rid of you.
Soren Kierkegaard
