Soren Kierkegaard Quotes
Sin is: before God, or with the conception of God, in despair not to will to be oneself, or in despair to will to be oneself.

The emphasis is on before God, or with a conception of God; it is the conception of God that makes sin dialectically, ethically, and religiously what lawyers call 'aggravated' despair.
