I think I know why I shall never be a philosopher it’s because
I’m not very good at taking notes the way that philosophers would I get
too distracted by lines I think should go in poems like these ones see
here are my notes on Kierkegaard take a look they’re very neat but
not at all helpful, mostly about other people:
NOTES ON KIERKEGAARD’S PHILOSOPHY FOR THE FINAL EXAM
“cold and clammy mollusk” -
do not become this.
reasons people travel the world:
(1) rivers and mountains
(2) birds of rare plumage
(3) queerly deformed fishes
(4) ridiculous breeds of men
what a mother must do to make her breast look less than delicious:
blacken it.
the knight of faith may have a wife,
she may be making him dinner,
she may be making him:
“a calf’s head, roasted, garnished with vegetables”
things Abraham had to do before sacrificing Isaac:
(1) cleave wood
(2) bind Isaac
(3) sharpen knife
what Isaac saw: “his left hand clenched in despair”
what Shakespeare can express:
“everything,
absolutely
everything,
precisely as
it
is”
