Telling the proper stories is as if you were approaching the throne of Heaven in a fiery chariot.

Before you can find God, you must lose yourself.

Unless we believe that God renews creation every day, our prayers grow habitual and tedious.

The world is full of wonders and miracles but man takes his little hand and covers his eyes and sees nothing.

We should not laugh at the person who becoming caught up in his prayer bends his body or moves about in strange ways. Perhaps he moves in this manner to wave off unwelcome thoughts that would interrupt the prayer. Would we find it funny if we saw a person drowning going through strange motions doing whatever was necessary to save his life?

For any of us to come to the understanding that we are common and unlearned is the accomplishment of a lifetime.

The central aspect of worship is the feeling of being at one with God.
