Marcus AureliusNever let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.
About This Quote
In this quote, Kierkegaard is encouraging his readers to not give up on their dreams. He says that the only way to be able to deal with the world of the future is to do so by the same weapons that we use to deal with things currently in our hands. The reason why it’s important to keep fighting for what we believe is because you never know what the future holds. What if your dreams come true? What if they don’t?
