To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.
As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.
To be conscious that we are perceiving or thinking is to be conscious of our own existence.
Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather must recognize that it is he who is asked.
Human existence cannot be meaningless. As long as we have breath, as long as we are conscious, we are responsible to answer the demands of reality.
Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become in the next moment.
You are not an accident. Existence needs you. Without you, something will be missing in existence and nobody can replace it.
Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.
