The tragedy of religion is partly due to its isolation from life, as if God could be segregated.

I am commanded therefore I am.

Every little deed counts.

The test of love is in how one relates not to saints and scholars but to rascals.

In the darkest night to be certain of the dawn...to go through Hell and to continue to trust in the goodness of God-this is the challenge and the way.

Wise criticism always begins with self-criticism.

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.
