Worship is a way of seeing the world in the light of God.

Life is not meaningful...unle ss it is serving an end beyond itself; unless it is of value to someone else.

It is dangerous to take human freedom for granted, to regard it as a prerogative rather than as an obligation, as an ultimate fact rather than as an ultimate goal. It is the beginning of wisdom to be amazed at the fact of our being free.

There is happiness in the love of labor, there is misery in the love of gain.

Self-respect is the root of discipline

The degree to which one is sensitive to other people's suffering, to other (people's) humanity, is the index of one's own humanity

When faith is completely replaced by creed, worship by discipline, love by habit; when the crisis of today is ignored because of the splendors of the past; when faith becomes an heirloom rather than a living fountain; when religion speaks only in the name of authority rather than with the voice of compassion, its message becomes meaningless.
