Success Is Total Self-acceptance.

I Had Wanted Simply To Convey To The Reader By Way Of Concrete Example That Life Holds A Potential Meaning Under Any Conditions, Even The Most Miserable Ones. And I Thought That If The Point Were Demonstrated In A Situation As Extreme As That In A Concentration Camp, My Book Might Gain A Hearing. I Therefore Felt Responsible For Writing Down What I Had Gone Through, For I Thought It Might Be Helpful To People Who Are Prone To Despair.

Man Is Not Fully Conditioned And Determined But Rather Determines Himself Whether He Gives In To Conditions Or Stands Up To Them. In Other Words, Man Is Ultimately Self-determining. Man Does Not Simply Exist But Always Decides What His Existence Will Be, What He Will Become In The Next Moment.

It Is The Pursuit Of Happiness That Thwarts Happiness.

It Said To Me, 'i Am Here — I Am Here — I Am Life, Eternal Life.'

At Such A Moment, It Is Not The Physical Pain Which Hurts The Most (and This Applies To Adults As Much As To Punished Children); It Is The Mental Agony Caused By The Injustice, The Unreasonableness Of It All.
