Seren Kierkegaard > Quotes > Quotable Quote “When I was very young and in the cave of Trophonius I forgot to ~a laugh. Then, when I got older, when I opened my eyes and saw the ¥ real world, I began to laugh and I haven’t stopped since. I saw that Lo the meaning of life was to get a livelihood, that the goal of life was A\ to be a High Court judge, that the bright joy of love was to marry a % well-off girl, that the blessing of friendship was to help each other \ out of a financial tight spot, that wisdom was what the majority said it was, that passion was to give a speech, that courage was to risk being fined 10 rix-dollars, that cordiality was to say ‘Yow're welcome’ after a meal, and that the fear of God was to g0 to communion once a year. — Saren Kierkegaard, Either/Or: A Fragment of Life
