Quote by Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855)

• Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

• 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.

• Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.

• People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.

• Prayer does not change God, but changes him who prays.

• Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
