When the sense of the earth unites with the sense of one's body, one becomes earth of the earth, a plant among plants, an animal born from the soil and fertilizing it. In this union, the body is confirmed in its pantheism.

We all have within us a center of stillness surrounded by silence.

Be grateful as your deeds become less and less associated with your name, as your feet ever more lightly tread the earth.

Our work for peace must begin within the private world of each of us. To build for man a world without fear, we must be without fear. To build a world of justice, we must be just.

On the bookshelf of life, God is a useful work of reference, always at hand but seldom consulted.

It is not we who seek the Way, but the Way which seeks us. That is why you are faithful to it, even while you stand waiting, so long as you are prepared, and act the moment you are confronted by its demands.

I have only my own burden to bear.
