Soren Kierkegaard

If i were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disaoppoints, possibility never. (from EITHER/OR Volume 1, Chapter titled Diapsalmata) - Soren Kierkegaard

Where am I? Who am I? How did I come to be here? What is this thing called the world? How did I come into the world? Why was I not consulted? And If I am compelled to take part in it, Where is the director? I want to see him. - Soren Kierkegaard

Life must be understood backward. But it must be lived forward. - Soren Kierkegaard

No time of life is so beautiful as the early days of love, when with every meeting, every glance, one fetches something new home to rejoice over. - Soren Kierkegaard
