Sören Kierkegaard - to be an individual

http://www.religion-online.org/showchapter.asp?title=2523&C=2399

the most ruinous evasion of all is to be hidden in the crowd in an attempt to escape God’s supervision of him as an individual, in an attempt to get away from hearing God’s voice as an individual. Long ago, Adam attempted this same thing when his evil conscience led him to imagine that he could hide himself among the trees

For in eternity there is no mob pressure, no crowd, no hiding place in the crowd, as little as there are riots or street fights!
