Soren Kierkegaard Quotes

...my soul always reverts to the Old Testament and to Shakespeare. There at least one feels that it's human beings talking. There people hate, people love, people murder their enemy and curse his descendants through all generations, there people sin.

If the answers are in the back of the book I can wait, but what a drag. Better to struggle on knowing that failure is final.
