“Faith begins precisely where thinking leaves off”
― Soren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling

“Infinite resignation is that shirt in the old fable. The thread is spun with tears, bleached by tears, the shirt sewn in tears, but then it also gives better protection than iron and steel. A defect of the fable is that a third party is able to make the material. The secret in life is that everyone must sew it for himself.”
― Soren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling

“Man is nothing else but that which he makes of himself. That is the first principle of existentialism.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre, Existentialism is a Humanism

“If I ask myself "Will the social ideal as such, ever become a reality?" I cannot tell, I only know that whatever may be in my power to make it so, I shall do; beyond that, I can count upon nothing.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre, Existentialism is a Humanism
