About This Quote
Life is simply born and, as such, it has no meaning. It is what we make of it. The answer to the meaning of life comes from the meaning of each minute, each hour and each day. Each time we ask why something happens, we are looking for meaning. We cannot find such meaning in the fact of our existence; but we can find it in our actions and our beliefs.
