en realidad no importa que no esperemos nada de la vida, sino que la vida espere algo de nosotros. Dejemos de interrogarnos sobre el sentido de la vida y, en cambio, pensemos en lo que la existencia nos reclama continua e incesantemente. Y respondamos no con palabras, ni con meditaciones, sino con el valor y la conducta recta y adecuada. En última instancia, vivir significa asumir la responsabilidad de encontrar la respuesta correcta a las cuestiones que la existencia nos plantea, cumplir con las obligaciones que la vida nos asigna a cada uno en cada instante particular.
