Text Quotes
Sin is in itself separation from the good, but despair over sin is separation a second time  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) The commandment is that you shall love, but when you understand life and yourself, then it is as if you should not need to be commanded, because to love human beings is still the only thing worth living for; without this life you really do not live  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) Philosophy always requires something more, requires the eternal, the true, in contrast to which even the fullest existence as such is but a happy moment  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) I divide my time as follows: half the time I sleep, the other half I dream. I never dream when I sleep, for that would be a pity, for sleeping is the highest accomplishment of genius  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is no reparation, either in time or in eternity  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) Idleness, we are accustomed to say, is the root of all evil.

Idleness as such is by no means a root of evil; on the contrary, it is truly a divine life, if one is not bored  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) 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 Quotes) Every mental act is composed of doubt and belief, but it is belief that is the positive, it is belief that sustains thought and holds the world together  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) The self is a relation which relates itself to its own self, or it is that in the relation that the relation relates itself to its own self; the self is not the relation but that the relation relates itself to its own self  (Soren Kierkegaard 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 Quotes) I would rather be a swineherd, understood by the swine, than a poet misunderstood by men  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) When you were called, did you answer or did you not? Perhaps softly and in a whisper?  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) About as genuine as tea made from a bit of paper which once lay in a drawer beside another piece of paper which had been used to wrap up a few tea leaves from which tea had already been made three times  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) For the sadness in legitimate humour consists in the fact that honestly and without deceit it reflects in a purely human way upon what it is to be a child  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) No one may pride himself at being more than an individual, and no one despondently think that he is not an individual  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) To venture causes anxiety, but not to venture is to lose one’s self... And to venture in the highest is precisely to be conscious of one’s self  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) The most painful state of being is remembering the future, particularly the one you’ll never have  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) Don’t you know that a midnight hour comes when everyone has to take off his mask? Do you think life always lets itself be trifled with? Do you think you can sneak off a little before midnight to escape this?  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) 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 Quotes) What is existence for but to be laughed at if men in their twenties have already attained the utmost?  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) The thing is to understand myself: the thing is to find a truth which is true for me, to find the idea for which I can live and die. That is what I now recognize as the most important thing  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) Our age is essentially one of understanding and reflection, without passion, momentarily bursting into enthusiasm and shrewdly relapsing into repose  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) Intelligence has got the upper hand to such an extent that it transforms the real task into an unreal trick and reality into a play  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) It is modest of the nightingale not to require anyone to listen to it; but it is also proud of the nightingale not to care whether any one listens to it or not  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) To grumble about the world and its unhappiness is always easier than to beat one’s breast and groan over oneself  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) I have only one friend, and that is echo. Why is it my friend? Because I love my sorrow, and echo does not take it away from me. I have only one confidant, and that is the silence of night. Why is it my confidant? Because it remains silent  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) It is perfectly true, as philosophers say, that life must be understood backwards. But they forget the other proposition, that it must be lived forwards  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) For love is exultant when it unites equals, but it is triumphant when it makes that which was unequal equal in love  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) A poet is not an apostle; he drives out devils only by the power of the devil  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes) I’m so misunderstood that people misunderstand me even when I tell them I’m misunderstood  (Soren Kierkegaard Quotes)
