Man transcends himself either toward another human being or toward meaning. Love, I would say, is that capacity which enables him to grasp the other human being in his very uniqueness. Conscience is that capacity which empowers him to seize the meaning of a situation in its very uniqueness, and in the final analysis meaning is something unique.

Frankl,V., E. (1969/1988). The will to meaning. Penguin Group. p6.

As long as a man is still motivated either by the fear of punishment or by the hope of reward – or, for that matter, by the wish to appease the superego – conscience has not had its say as yet.

Viktor E. Frankl, The Unheard Cry for Meaning, p. 56

Solange Angst vor Strafe, oder Hoffnung auf Belohnung, oder der Wunsch dem Über-Ich zu gefallen, da ist, solange ist das Gewissen noch gar nicht zu Wort gekommen.

Frankl, Viktor: Der Wille zum Sinn, Bern 1991, S.167
