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.

Man's main concern is not to gain pleasure or to avoid pain but rather to see a meaning in his life. That is why man is even ready to suffer, on the condition, to be sure, that his suffering has a meaning.

Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression of the state of being human.

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

The last of the human freedoms is to choose one's attitudes.
