-Viktor Frankl
Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms: to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
-Viktor Frankl
A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.

"Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whoever loves much, performs much, and can accomplish much, and that which is done in love is done well." -- Vincent Van Gogh
"Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." -Harold Whitman
"real strength does not impair harmony or beauty, but often bestows it."
