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.

Sometimes you're watching a great film actor, and if you stand 10 feet away from them, you're like, 'God, they're terrible. They're not doing anything.' And then you see the close-up, and it's so nuanced, and so much expression is happening. They were acting for that camera and for no one else.
