When a man cannot find meaning, he numbs himself with pleasure.

In his creative work the artist is dependent on sources and resources deriving from the spiritual unconscious.

Man is not fully conditioned and determined but rather determines himself whether he gives in to conditions or stands up to them.

The struggle for existence is a struggle 'for' something; it is purposeful and only in so being is it meaningful and able to bring meaning into life.

In times of crisis, people reach for meaning. Meaning is strength. Our survival may depend on our seeking and finding it.

The quest for meaning is the key to mental health and human flourishing

The more one forgives himself - by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love - the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself.
