"What does your conscience say?"

 

Nietzsche, Kierkegaard's younger contemporary, writes:

"What does your conscience say?--'You shall become the person you are'" (219).

"We, however, want to become those we are--human beings who are new, unique, incomparable, who give themselves laws, who create themselves" (266).
