The word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.

Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.

The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.

A psychoneurosis must be understood, ultimately, as the suffering of a soul which has not discovered its meaning.

A human being would certainly not grow to be seventy or eighty years old if this longevity had no meaning for the species. The afternoon of human life must also have a significance of its own and cannot be merely a pitiful appendage to life's morning.

There is no such thing as a pure introvert or extrovert. Such a person would be in the lunatic asylum.
