“Mans main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.”

“Misfortunes leave wounds which bleed drop by drop even in sleep; thus little by little they train man by force and dispose him to wisdom in spite of himself. Man must learn to think of himself as a limited and dependent being; and only suffering teaches him this.”
