Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche on Meaning

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

— Friedrich Nietzsche

Interpretation

Purpose is not a luxury; it is a psychological necessity. When we have a deeply felt reason for our existence—a "why"—we can endure almost any form of suffering or hardship, transmuting pain into a meaningful part of our journey.
