The gratitude that we encounter helps us believe in the goodness of the world, and strengthens us thereby to do what's good.

We need a boundless ethic, one which will include the animals, too. Until we extend the circle of his compassions to all living things, we will not find peace.

All the kindness which a man puts out into the world works on the heart and thoughts of mankind.

Truth has not special time of its own. Its hour is now - always and, indeed then most truly, when it seems unsuitable to actual circumstances.

The stronger the reverence for natural life, the stronger grows also that for spiritual life.

The deeper we look into nature, the more we recognize that it is full of life, and the more profoundly we know that all life is a secret and that we are united with all life that is in nature.

Don't let your hearts grow numb. Stay alert. It is your soul which matters.
