A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion, whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair.

God is either of no importance, or of supreme importance.

It is not enough for me to ask question; I want to know how to answer the one question that seems to encompass everything I face: What am I here for?

To serve does not mean to surrender but to share.

Mundus vult decipi'—the world wants to be deceived. To live without deception presupposes standards beyond the reach of most people whose existence is largely shaped by compromise, evasion and mutual accommodation. Could they face their weakness, their vanity and selfishness, without a mask?

Knowledge-like the sky- is never private property. No teacher has a right to withhold it from anyone who asks for it. Teaching is the art of sharing.

All that is left is to us is our being horrified at the loss of our sense of horror.
