Søren Kierkegaard
“What is a poet? An unhappy man who hides deep anguish in his heart, but whose lips are so formed that when the sigh and cry pass through them, it sounds like lovely music.... And people flock around the poet and say: 'Sing again soon' - that is, 'May new sufferings torment your soul but your lips be fashioned as before, for the cry would only frighten us, but the music, that is blissful.”
Soren Kierkegaard, Either - Or

Martin Luther
“If you want to change the world, pick up your pen and write.”
Martin Luther

John Milton
“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven..”

Søren Kierkegaard
“If anyone on the verge of action should judge himself according to the outcome, he would never begin.”
Søren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling

William Blake
“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.”
William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell
