Moritz Schlick - On the Meaning of Life

In his 1927 paper, Moritz Schlick, one of the founders of the Vienna Circle and logical positivism, discusses the meaning of life. He argues that it cannot lie in goals, but only in activities that have are pursued for their own sake. He connects this to the concepts of 'play' and 'youth.'
