Beni öldürmeyen şey, beni daha da güçlü kılar.
-Nietzsche
Herkesin yaşamında belirli bir görevi ya da misyonu vardır. Bu nedenle, kişinin ne yeri doldurulabilir, ne de yaşamı tekrarlanabilir. Kısacası herkesin misyonu kendine özgüdür, tıpkı bunu yerine getirmesi için eline geçen belirli fırsatlar gibi.
“Wie viel ist aufzuleiden!”(Bitirilecek ne kadar çok acı var!) Başkalarının “bitirilecek işler”den söz etmesi gibi, Rilke de “acıların bitirilmesi”nden söz ediyor. Bizim için bitirilecek bolca acı vardı. Bu nedenle, zayıflık anlarını ve gizli gözyaşlarını minimum düzeyde tutmaya çalışarak, acının tamamını göğüslememiz gerekiyordu. Ama gözyaşlarımızdan utanmamız gerekmiyordu, çünkü gözyaşları, bir insanın, cesaretlerin en büyüğüne, acı çekme cesaretine sahip olduğuna tanıklık ediyordu. Ancak çok az kişi bunu kavrıyordu.

Thirdly, the short time I have been married to her outweighs everything, even all we have gone through here.
My 6 years old daughter asked me a question, "Why do we speak of the good Lord(God)?" Whereupon I said, "Some weeks ago, you were suffering from measles, and then the good Lord sent you full recovery." "Well, but please,Daddy, not forget: in the first place, he had sent me the measles."
The Truth- that love is ultimate and the highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and believe have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love.
Yes, a man can get used to anything, but do not ask how
The dreamer had to wake from them to the reality of camp life, and terrible contrast between that and his dream illusions.
There are things which must cause you to lose your reason or you have none to lose
Experiences in a concentration camp
My mind still clung to the image of my wife. A thought crossed my mind: I didn't even know if she were still alive. I knew only one thing - which I have learned well by now: Love goes very far beyond the physical person of the beloved. It finds its deepest meaning in his spiritual being, his inner self. Whether or not he is actually present, whether or not he is still alive at all, ceases somehow to be of importance.
I did not know whether my wife was alive, and I had no means of finding out (during all my prison life there was no outgoing or incoming mail); but at that moment it ceased to matter. There was no need for me to know; nothing could touch the strength of my love, my thoughts, and the image of my beloved. Had I known then that my wife was dead, I think that I would still have given myself, undisturbed by that knowledge, to the contemplation of her image, and that my mental conversation with her would have been just as vivid and just as satisfying. "Set me like a seal upon thy heart, love is as strong as death."

There is nothing he need fear anymore- except his God.
There are two races of men in this world, but only the two- the "race" of the decent man and the "race" if indecent man. Both found everywhere; they penetrate into all groups of society. No group consists entirely of decent or indecent people. In this sense, no group is of "pure race.
If there's a meaning in life at all, then there must be a meaning in suffering. Suffering is an ineradicable part of life, even as fate and death. Without suffering and death human life cannot be complete
The story of Death in Teheran
A rich and mighty Persian once walked in his garden with one of his servants. The servant cried that he had just encountered Death, who had threatened him. He begged his master to give him his fastest horse so that he could make haste and flee to Teheran, which he could reach that same evening. The master consented and the servant galloped off on the horse. On returning to his house the master himself met Death, and questioned him, "Why did you terrify and threaten my servant?" "I did not threaten him; i only showed surprise in still finding him here when I planned to meet him tonight in Teheran," said Death
