How embarrassing for man to be the greatest miracle on earth and not to understand it!
Abraham Joshua HeschelThe meaning of the Sabbath is to celebrate time rather than space. Six days a week we live under the tyranny of things of space; on the Sabbath we try to become attuned to holiness in time. It is a day on which we are called upon to share in what is eternal in time, to turn from the results of creation to the mystery of creation; from the world of creation to the creation of the world.
Abraham Joshua HeschelThere is no specialized art of prayer. All of life must be a training to pray. We pray the way we live.
