Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Know thyself? If I knew myself, I'd run away.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Søren Kierkegaard
“People try to persuade us that the objections against Christianity spring from doubt. That is a complete misunderstanding. The objections against Christianity spring from insubordination, the dislike of obedience, rebellion against all authority. As a result, people have hitherto been beating the air in their struggle against objections, because they have fought intellectually with doubt instead of fighting morally with rebellion.”
Soren Kierkegaard

Martin Luther
“Let the wife make her husband glad to come home and let him make her sorry to see him leave.”
Martin Luther

Martin Luther
“There never yet have been, nor are there now, too many good books.”
Martin Luther

J.R.R. Tolkien
“We have come from God, and inevitably the myths woven by us, though they contain error, will also reflect a splintered fragment of the true light, the eternal truth that is with God. Indeed only by myth-making, only by becoming 'sub-creator' and inventing stories, can Man aspire to the state of perfection that he knew before the Fall. Our myths may be misguided, but they steer however shakily towards the true harbour, while materialistic 'progress' leads only to a yawning abyss and the Iron Crown of the power of evil.”
J.R.R. Tolkien
