““The book was called Man’s Search for Meaning by the Jewish author Viktor Frankl. The book had been a real-life story about Viktor Frankl’s time as a concentration camp prisoner in the very camp David had just visited, Auschwitz. Viktor Frankl hadn’t survived because he was stronger or smarter than his fellow prisoners. He had simply survived because he had been able to find a purpose for his life. He had started writing a manuscript in the camp and he had wanted to survive to be able to publish it. Fyodor Dostoevsky, the Russian author, had defined a human as ‘a being that could adapt to anything.’ And he had been right. With a purpose you could handle anything life threw at you. David””
