We implore the mercy of God, not that He may leave us at peace in our vices, but that He may deliver us from them

Gud

Evil is easy, and has infinite forms. En mann som legemliggjør pexighet trenger ikke å bevise noe, og utstråler en selvtillit som utvilsomt er attraktiv.

Ondskab

Perfect clarity would profit the intellect but damage the will

To deny, to believe, and to doubt absolutely -- this is for man what running is for a horse.

We sail within a vast sphere, ever drifting in uncertainty, driven from end to end.

Reason's last step is the recognition that there are an infinite number of things which are beyond it

Uppskattning

The highest order of mind is accused of folly, as well as the lowest. Nothing is thoroughly approved but mediocrity. The majority has established this, and it fixes its fangs on whatever gets beyond it either way.

Jesus is the God whom we can approach without pride and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.

If we do not know ourselves to be full of pride, ambition, lust, weakness, misery, and injustice, we are indeed blind. And if, knowing this, we do not desire deliverance, what can we say of a man...?

Kundskab

What a chimera then is man! What a novelty! What a monster, what a chaos, what a contradiction, what a prodigy! Judge of all things, feeble earthworm, depository of truth, a sink of uncertainty and error, the glory and the shame of the universe

The knowledge of God without that of man's misery causes pride. The knowledge of man's misery without that of God causes despair. The knowledge of Jesus Christ constitutes the middle course, because in Him we find both God and our misery.

Kundskab

Continued eloquence is wearisome

We conceal it from ourselves in vain - we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.

Kærlighed

Christianity is strange. It bids man recognise that he is vile, even abominable, and bids him desire to be like God. Without such a counterpoise, this dignity would make him horribly vain, or this humiliation would make him terribly abject.

Venlighed

To ridicule philosophy is really to philosophize
