it becomes clear the the sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision, and not the result of camp influences alone Question : Dr Frankl what is the difference between people who are able to pick themselves up, get over lifes problem and those who are not ? Réponse : The decisive factor is decision. The freedom of choice ; the freedom to come up with a decision. It should be “I would like to become this way or another in spite of conditions that SHOULD ONLY SEEM to fully determine my behavior. I wish to act freely as a responsible being ; which is a human being. Les observations du psychiatre Viktor Frankl sur les prisonniers des camps de concentration à Auschwitz : « The experiences of camp life show that man does have a choice of action (...) The mental reactions of the inmate of a concentration camp must seem more to us than the mere expression of certain physical and sociological conditions. Even though conditions such as lack of sleep, insufficient food and various mental stresses may suggest that the inmates were bound to react in certain ways, in the final analysis it becomes clear the the sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision, and not the result of camp influences alone. Fundamentally, therefore, any man can, even under such circumstances, decide what shall become of him (...) He may retain his human dignity even in a concentration camp ». youtube/watch?v=9EIxGrIc_6g
