“Those who have a ‘why’ to live, can bear with almost any ‘how’.”

The salvation of man is through love and in love.

The salvation of man is through love and in love.

Man can only find meaning for his existence in something outside himself.

Ever more people today have the means to live, but no meaning to live for.

Nothing is likely to help a person overcome or endure troubles than the consciousness of having a task in life.

Each of us carries a unique spark of the divine, and each of us is also an inseparable part of the web of life.

Love goes very far beyond the physical person of the beloved. It finds its deepest meaning in his spiritual being, his inner self. Whether or not he is actually present, whether or not he is still alive at all, ceases somehow to be of importance.

In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.

A human being is not one thing among others; things determine each other, but man is ultimately self-determining.

An abnormal reaction to an abnormal situation is normal behavior.

So live as if you were living already for the second time and as if you had acted the first time as wrongly as you are about to act now!

Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

In times of crisis, people reach for meaning. Meaning is strength. Our survival may depend on our seeking and finding it.

Man’s inner strength may raise him above his outward fate.

Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.
