Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.
There is nothing in the world, I venture to say, that would so effectively help one to survive even the worst conditions as the knowledge that there is a meaning in one's life.
The more one forgets himself - by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love - the more human he is.
Even a genius cannot completely resist his Zeitgeist, the spirit of his time.
Faith is trust in ultimate meaning.
Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked.
Ever more people today have the means to live, but no meaning to live for.
