Søren Kierkegaard Quotes

The absurd is a category, the negative criterion, of the divine or of the relationship to the divine. When the believer has faith, the absurd is not the absurd - faith transforms it, but in every weak moment it is again more or less absurd to him. - Søren Kierkegaard (The Journals Quotes)
