"Without commandments, obliging us to live after a certain fashion, our existence is that of the "unemployed". This is the terrible spiritual situation in which the best youth of the world finds itself to-day. By dint of feeling itself free, exempt from restrictions, it feels itself empty. An umemployed existence is a worse negation of life than death itself. Because to live means to have something definite to do - a mission to fulfill - and in the measure in which we avoid setting our life to something, we make it empty." -Jose Ortega y Gasset |
