The salvation of man is through love and in love.

...everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms - to choose one´s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one´s own way.

... the words of Bismarck could be applied: "Life is like being at the dentist. You always think the worst is still to come, and yet it is over already."

...human life, under any circumstances, never ceases to have a meaning, and that this infinite meaning of life suffering and dying privation and death.

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.

...every human beeing has the freedom to change at any instant.

...man is ultimately self-determining. What he becomes - within the limits of endowment and environment - he has made out of himself.

...people have enough to live by but nothing to live for; they have the means but no meaning.

For the world is in a bad state, but everything will become still worse unless each of us does his best.

One should not search for an abstract meaning of life. Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life to carry out a concrete assignment which demands fulfillment. Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life.
