“And I, who timidly hate life, fear death with fascination. I fear this nothingness that could be something else, and I fear it as nothing and as something else simultaneously, as if gross horror and non-existence could coincide there, as if my coffin could entrap the eternal breathing of a bodily soul, as if immortality could be tormented by confinement. The idea of hell, which only a satanic soul could have invented seems to me to have derived from this sort of confusion - a mixture of two different fears that contradict and contaminate each other.” IfsTwoIdeasDifferentSoulSeemsHateExistenceHellHorrorEternalConfusionBreathingImmortalityNothingnessGrossMixturesFascinationFear Of DeathCoffinsSatanicConfinementNon ExistenceHate Life Author:Fernando Pessoa

“What you learn about yourself is that you continue to see that you're selfish. It's so easy, in our Laodicean culture with all the different things that grab our minds that aren't of eternal value, to let those tentacles wrap themselves around your heart. That's one of the reasons why we love going overseas. It helps us to break free of those things. We've been on all of these trips, but it's easy to slide back into the selfishness of life.

“Death is not earnest in the same way the eternal is. To the earnestness of death belongs precisely that remarkable capacity for awakening, that resonance of a profound mockery which, detached from the thought of the eternal, is an empty and often brash jest, but together with the thought of the eternal is just what it should be, utterly different from the insipid solemness which least of all captures and holds a thought with tension like that of death.” WayShouldDifferentTogetherEternalCapacityEmptyProfoundAwakeningTensionRemarkableCaptureEarnestMockeryDetachedResonanceJestEarnestnessInsipidBrash Author:Soren Kierkegaard
