Kierkegaarded Thought of the Day

May 2, 2011 by at 1:18 pm

“If I were a father and had a daughter who was seduced, I should not despair
over her;  I would hope for her salvation.  But if I had a son who became a
journalist, and continued to be one for five years, I would give him up” (A
Kierkegaard Anthology,  ed. Robert Bretall).

The quote was provided by my sister-in-law Elizabeth (to whom, incidentally, I dedicated “Anthology” – aka “The Hothouse Sonnets”).
