"

That night I thought for the first time about the meaning of life. And again the same thing: you must and can do what your spiritual consciousness asks. And not what you owe to someone, but what urges you that only this activity brings true good. If you ask: why? Ein Narr kann mehr Fragen stellen als tausend Weise answerant können *. Why, it's none of my business, it's pointless and I'm not allowed to know. I don't even have the organs necessary for this understanding.

Romanian

"În noaptea asta m-am gândit parcă pentru prima oară la sensul vieții. Și din nou același lucru: trebuie și poți să faci ce-ți cere conștiința spirituală. Și nu ce ești dator cuiva, ci ce te îndeamnă faptul că doar această activitate aduce adevăratul bine. Dacă întrebi: de ce? Ein Narr kann mehr Fragen stellen als tausend Weise beantworten können *. De ce, nu-i treaba mea, n-are rost și nu mi-e dat să știu. Nici nu am organele necesare acestei înțelegeri."
