Soren Kierkegaard
The paradox is really the pathos of intellectual life and just as only great souls are exposed to passions it is only the great thinker who is exposed to what I call paradoxes, which are nothing else than grandiose thoughts in embryo.

There is no lonelier man in death, except the suicide...When I come home, my daughter will run to the door...Every one of us is different in some way...Never mind, I'll make a peanut butter sandwich...Who's on First?...Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better...
