Soren Kierkegaard Quotes About Feelings

Quotes about: Feelings

• Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.

  Soren Kierkegaard

  Sitting Still, Feelings, Everyday

Christ's love was not an inner feeling, a full heart and what not, it was the work of love which was his life.

• The difference between a man who faces death for the sake of an idea and an imitator who goes in search of martyrdom is that whilst the former expresses his idea most fully in death it is the strange feeling of bitterness which comes from failure that the latter really enjoys; the former rejoices in his victory, the latter in his suffering.

  Soren Kierkegaard

  Men, Ideas, Differences

• The present generation, wearied by its chimerical efforts, relapses into complete indolence. Its condition is that of a man who has only fallen asleep towards morning: first of all come great dreams, then a feeling of laziness, and finally a witty or clever excuse for remaining in bed.

  Soren Kierkegaard

  Dream, Witty, Morning
