Next he passed therefrom into that of plants,
For years he lived as one of the plants,

After seventeen, eighteen detours and running all around someone finally has his finite existence assured, and then we receive a sermon about Seek first the kingdom of God. Is this sobriety or is this intoxication? p. 112
Søren Kierkegaard
