"… in den Worten von Nietzsche ‚Wer ein Warum zu leben hat, erträgt fast jedes Wie.’ Man musste also den Lagerinsassen, sofern sich hie und da einmal die Gelegenheit hierzu bot, das ‚Warum’ ihres Lebens, ihr Lebensziel, bewusst machen, um so zu erreichen, dass sie auch dem furchtbaren ‚Wie’ des gegenwärtigen Daseins, den Schrecken des Lagerlebens, innerlich gewachsen waren und standhalten konnten."
