Søren Aabye Kierkegaard was a 19th century Danish philosopher, theologian, and social critic who is often described as the father of existentialism.
In The Concept of Anxiety (1844) he writes that “Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom, which emerges when … freedom looks down into its own possibility.” Kierkegaard defined anxiety as a providing power to drive creativity. For Kierkegaard, creating means actualising one’s possibilities. Thus, he reasons, “creating involves destroying the status quo, destroying old patterns within oneself, progressively destroying what one has clung to from childhood on, and creating new and original forms and ways of living.” #inspiration #quoteoftheday #quotestagram #anxiety #kierkegaard #creativity #creativevoyage
