“ The self of the determinist cannot breathe, for it is impossible to breathe necessity exclusively, because that would utterly suffocate a person’s self. The fatalist is in despair, has lost God and thus his self, for he who does not have a God does not have a self, either. ”
Søren Kierkegaard, The Sickness Unto Death (1849). copy citation
