LOOOOVVVEEE HIM.
Thanks. My aunt used that quote for my grandmother’s 100 birthday. Do you have any others of his you really like?
Wow. That quote just about knocked my socks off. Great selection today Alex.
Thanks Tom. That’s always great to hear.
I’ve always loved that quote. It’s so true.
So much said in one line. He sure had a way with words.
Definitely.
Great quote. Steve Jobs said something similar about connecting the dots. Undoubtedly he was aware of Kierkegaard!
I don’t doubt he was. Both visionaries really.
