# Nietzsche quote: Meaning helps endure hardship 2026-08-13T13:23:48+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's quote 'He who has a why to live can bear almost any how' has been explained by Livemint in a daily feature. The line, from his 1889 work 'Twilight of the Idols', was popularised by Viktor Frankl in his 1946 book 'Man's Search for Meaning'. The article breaks down the quote's meaning: a sense of purpose makes suffering, long workdays, and failure easier to bear by shifting focus from 'how hard' something is to 'why it is worth doing'. ## Coverage - livemint.com Tags: meaning, motivation, Nietzsche, philosophy, Viktor Frankl Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/nietzsche-quote-meaning-helps-endure-hardship/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
