Will One Thing Quotes

“No, like worldly contempt, worldly honor is a whirlpool, a play of confused forces, an illusory moment in the flux of opinions. It is a sense-deception, as when a swarm of insects at a distance seem to the eye like one body; a sense-deception, as when the noise of the many at a distance seems to the ear like a single voice.”
― Søren Kierkegaard, Purity of Heart is to Will One Thing: Spiritual Preparation for the Office of Confession
