“If beneath things there were to hide a bottomless void, never to be filled, what would life be other than despair? If this were the case—if no sacred bond were to unite humanity, if generations were to renew themselves one after another like the foliage of forests, if they were to be extinguished one by one like the birdsong fading in the woods; if they were to traverse the world as a ship crosses the ocean, or as the wind crosses the desert, as a blind and sterile action; if an eternal oblivion, perpetually ravenous, were to stalk its prey, and there were no force capable of tearing it away—how empty and desolate life would be"

Fear And Trembling, Søren Kierkegaard
