The Question

"My question--that which at the age of fifty brought me to the verge of suicide--was the simplest of questions, lying in the soul of every man...a question without an answer to which one cannot live. It was, 'What will come of what I am doing today or tomorrow? What will come of my whole life? Why should I live, why wish for anything?' It can be also expressed thus: Is there any meaning in my life that the inevitable death awaiting me does not dedtroy?"

Leo Tolstoy
