Kierkegaard on Despair
Posted on November 9th, 2006, in the evening
Here's how to start a book:
If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the foundation of all there lay only a wildly seething power which writhing with obscure passions produced everything that is great and everything that is insignificant, if a bottomless void never satiated lay hidden beneath all - what then would life be but despair?
Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling, tr. Lowrie
