Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.

Søren Kierkegaard

Patience is necessary, and one cannot reap immediately where one has sown.

Søren Kierkegaard

It is better to try something and fail than to try nothing and succeed. The result may be the same, but you won’t be. We always grow more through defeats than victories.

Søren Kierkegaard

Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

Søren Kierkegaard

Take a chance and you may lose. Take not a chance and you have lost already.

The door to happiness opens outward.

Søren Kierkegaard

The unhappy person is never present to themself because they always live in the past or the future.

Søren Kierkegaard

A good decision is our will to do everything we can within our power. It means to serve God with all we’ve got, be it little or much. Every person can do that.
