Viktor E. Frankl
“No man should judge unless he asks himself in absolute honesty whether in a similar situation he might not have done the same.”
Viktor Emil Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

C.S. Lewis
“No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear. I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid. The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning. I keep on swallowing.

At other times it feels like being mildly drunk, or concussed. There is a sort of invisible blanket between the world and me. I find it hard to take in what anyone says. Or perhaps, hard to want to take it in. It is so uninteresting. Yet I want the others to be about me. I dread the moments when the house is empty. If only they would talk to one another and not to me.”
C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed

Victor Hugo
“He loved books, those undemanding but faithful friends.”
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

Viktor E. Frankl
“To draw an analogy: a man's suffering is similar to the behavior of a gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering is great or little. Therefore the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative.”
Viktor Emil Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Victor Hugo
“I advance in life, I grow more simple, and I become more and more patriotic for humanity.”
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
