Quotes:

“Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future.”

He lives and becomes aware of what “person” really means, its solitude, its responsibility, its earnestness, and that it is something different, something higher than any immediate structure of life and culture. He thereby comes to the brink of his hitherto existing level of existence; he divines the new level and its demand upon him. In order to satisfy the demand he must let go of the present level and “leap” to the next. 

|

He must leap, because he receives no guarantee from his old position that he will gain a foothold on the new one, for the latter is of a higher kind and thus “other.” 

|

He must thus take the risk. Between the two levels lies an abyss, an obscurity. Man must, in the earnestness of the decision, gather himself together, raise himself out of himself, and throw himself across. 

| 

Then he gains a footing and is able to exist on a higher level; his eyes are opened to a new and superior reality; a new power of evaluation awakens, and he is able to appreciate and to love on a higher level.
