Quotes

“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.” - Frederich Nietzsche

“Suffering in and of itself is meaningless; we give our suffering meaning by the way in which we respond to it.” - Harold S. Kushner 

“If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering is great or little. Therefore the “size” of human suffering is absolutely relative.” - Viktor E. Frankl 

“Love is the ultimate and the highest goal to which man can aspire.” - Viktor E. Frankl

“Often it is just an exceptionally difficult external situation which gives man the opportunity to grow spiritually beyond himself." Viktor E. Frankl

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.” - Zig Ziglar
