Our concern is whether we can live with dignity in such a system, whether it serves people rather than people serving it. - Václav Havel

There is only one thing I will not concede: that it might be meaningless to strive in a good cause.

Isn't it the moment of most profound doubt that gives birth to new certainties? Perhaps hopelessness is the very soil that nourishes human hope; perhaps one could never find sense in life without first experiencing its absurdity. . .

The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning - in other words, of absurdity - the more energetically meaning is sought.
