Question from Max Frisch:

· Are you really interested in the preservation of the human race once you and all the people you know are no longer alive?

·  State briefly why.

·  How many of your children do not owe their existence to deliberate intention?

·  Whom would you rather never have met?

·  Are you conscious of being in the wrong in relation to some other person (who need not necessarily be aware of it)? If so, does this make you hate yourself – or the other person?

·  Would you like to have perfect memory?

·  Give the name of a politician whose death through illness, accident, etc. would fill you with hope. Or do you consider none of them indispensible?

·  Which person or persons, now dead, would you like to see again?

·  Which not?

·  Would you rather have belonged to a different nation (or civilization)? If so, which?

·  To what age do you wish to live?

·  If you had the power to put into effect things you consider right, would you do so against the wishes of the majority? (Yes or no)

·  Why not, if you think they are right?

·  Which do you find it easier to hate, a group or an individual? And do you prefer to hate individually or as part of a group?

·  When did you stop believing you could become wiser – or do you still believe it? Give your age.

·  Are you convinced by your own self-criticism?

·  What in your opinion do others dislike about you, and what do you dislike about yourself? If not the same thing, which do you find it easier to excuse?

·  Do you find the thought that you might never have been born (if it ever occurs to you) disturbing?

·  When you think of someone dead, would you like him to speak to you, or would you rather say something more to him?

·  Do you love anybody?

·  How do you know?

·  Let us assume that you have never killed another human being. How do you account for it?

·  What do you need in order to be happy?

·  What are you grateful for?

·  Which would you rather do: die or live on as a healthy animal? Which animal?
