Viktor E. Frankl
Success, like happiness, is the unexpected side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself.
Viktor E. Frankl
As for the concept of collective guilt, I personally think that it is totally unjustified to hold one person responsible for the behavior of another person or a collective of persons.
Viktor E. Frankl
Human kindness can be found in all groups, even those which as a whole it would be easy to condemn.
