Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.
Far from idleness being the root of all evil, it is rather the only true good.
Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of potential -- for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible.
Pleasure disappoints; possibility never.
Prayer does not change God, but changes him who prays.
Soren Kierkegaard (1813 - 1855)
