Kierkegaard on “walk as in a dance”:
From the temporal one can learn a lot, but not to be anxious except in a very mediocre and corrupting way. The one, on the other hand who’s truly learned to be anxious, he’ll walk as in a dance, when the anxieties of the temporal start playing, and the disciples of the temporal lose both their minds and their courage.
Vigilius Haufniensis,
The Concept of Anxiety
Af Endeligheden kan man lære meget, men ikke at ængstes uden i en meget maadelig og fordærvende Forstand. Den, der derimod i Sandhed lærte at ængstes, han skal gaae som i Dands, naar Endelighedens Angster begynde at spille op, og naar Endelighedens Lærlinge tabe Forstand og Mod.
Vigilius Haufniensis,
Begrebet Angest
