Viktor E. Frankl Quotes About Tragedy

Quotes about: Tragedy

• We must never forget that we may also find meaning in life even when confronted with a hopeless situation, when facing a fate that cannot be changed. For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one's predicament into a human achievement. When we are no longer able to change a situation-just think of an incurable disease such as inoperable cancer-we are challenged to change ourselves.

• Most important, however, is the third avenue to meaning in life: even the helpless victim of a
  hopeless situation, facing a fate he cannot change, may rise above himself, may grow beyond
  himself, and by so doing change himself. He may turn a personal tragedy into a triumph.
