Viktor Emil Frankl was an Austrian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor who founded logotherapy, a school of psychotherapy that focuses on the search for meaning in life.
Frankl was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1905. He studied medicine and philosophy at the University of Vienna, and received his doctorate in 1930.
In 1938, Frankl was arrested by the Nazis and sent to several concentration camps, including Auschwitz and Dachau. He survived the Holocaust and went on to become a world-renowned psychiatrist and author.
Frankl's most famous book is Man's Search for Meaning, which tells the story of his experiences in the concentration camps and his theory of logotherapy.
Frankl died in Vienna in 1997 at the age of 92.

What is demanded of man is not, as some existential philosophers teach, to endure the meaninglessness of life, but rather to bear his incapacity to grasp its unconditional meaningfulness in rational terms.
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.
