If someone who wanted to learn...

If someone who wanted to learn to dance were to say: For centuries, one generation after the other has learned the positions, and it is high time that I take advantage of this and promptly begin with the quadrille--people would presumably laugh a little at him, but in the world of spirit this is very plausible. What, then, is education?

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

In the life of the individual ...

In the life of the individual when love awakens it is older than everything else, because when it exists it seems as if it has existed for a long time; it presupposes itself back into the
distant past until all searching ends in the inexplicable origin.

The self-assured believer is a greater sinner in the eyes of God than the troubled disbeliever.

To be lost in spiritlessness is the most terrible thing of all.

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

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 575 quotes

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 575 quotes

There is something almost crue...

There is something almost cruel about the Christian's being placed in a world which in every way wants to pressure him to do the opposite of what God bids him to do.

God does not think; he creates. He does not exist; he is eternal.

Christianity demands the crucifixion of the intellect.

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

The melancholy have the best sense of the comic, the opulent often the best sense of the rustic, the dissolute often the best sense of the moral, and the doubter often the best sense of the religious.

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

Faith is precisely the paradox...

Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.

In the Christianity of Christendom the Cross has become something like the child's hobby-horse and trumpet.

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

Love is the expression of the ...

Love is the expression of the one who loves, not of the one who is loved. Those who think they can love only the people they prefer do not love at all. Love discovers truths about individuals that others cannot see

Silence is the demon's trap, and the more one is silenced, the more terrible the demon; but silence is also the divinity's mutual understanding with the single individual.

I would rather be a swineherd, understood by the swine, than a poet misunderstood by men.

What labels me, negates me.

Soren Kierkegaard 575 quotes

When you were called, did you ...

When you were called, did you answer or did you not? Perhaps softly and in a whisper?

The Bible is very easy to understand. But we Christians are a bunch of scheming swindlers. We pretend to be unable to understand it because we know very well that the minute we understand, we are obliged to act accordingly.

Who is also aware of the tremendous risk involved in faith - when he nevertheless makes the leap of faith - this [is] subjectivity ... at its height.

Philosophy is life's dry-nurse, who can take care of us - but not suckle us.
