Man's Search for Meaning

Meaning isn't found once and kept. It's remade every ordinary morning.

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how. Frankl borrowed Nietzsche's line and earned it.

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms, to choose one's attitude.

Those who have a why can survive almost any camp. Frankl's psychiatry was built in the worst room on earth.

The prisoner who had lost faith in the future was doomed. Hope is a clinical variable.

Suffering ceases to be suffering when it finds meaning. Careful, powerful, and earned.
