Once we are bound together to our brothers by a common good that is outside us, then we can breathe. Experience teaches us that love is not to gaze at one another but to gaze in the same direction. There is no comradeship except through unity on the same rope, climbing towards the same peak.

Straight ahead you can't go very far.

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.

Man's progress is but a gradual discovery that his questions have no meaning.
