Concepts, like individuals, have their histories and are just as incapable of withstanding the ravages of time as are individuals. But in and through all this they retain a kind of homesickness for the scenes of their childhood. – Soren Kierkegaard
In addition to my other numerous acquaintances, I have one more intimate confidant. My depression is the most faithful mistress I have known — no wonder, then, that I return the love. – Soren Kierkegaard
Far from idleness being the root of all evil, it is rather the only true good. – Soren Kierkegaard
The highest and most beautiful things in life are not to be heard about, nor read about, nor seen but, if one will, are to be lived. – Soren Kierkegaard
So long as I can stay mentally alert – inquiring, curious – I want to keep going. I love my wife and my children, but I dont want to sit around at home with them. We go on safaris and things like that. I can do that for a couple of weeks a year. Im just not ready to stop, to die. – Rupert Murdoch
