"One who has a why can bear almost any how" - Nietzsche
From The Twilight of the Idols: or How to Philosophize with a Hammer

Neitzsche's idea that hardship is not alleviated by reducing the burden of life, but by increasing our conviction to bear it with purpose strikes a chord.
For the illustration, a constellation is depicted in the shape of a globe. The hand reaching across the star map reveals a figure who willingly bears the weight.
