I said in an interview at the time that God's job is not to make sick people healthy. That's the doctors' job. God's job is to make sick people brave.

Fun can be the dessert of our lives but never its main course.

There is a Jewish notion that holiness is found with other people. To understand what life really is, one has to share it.

God is like a mirror. The mirror never changes, but everybody who looks at it sees something different.

We teach children how to measure and how to weigh. We fail to teach them how to revere, how to sense wonder and awe.

We cannot live without the knowledge that someone cares about us.

We do ourselves and others a disservice when we make old age something to be feared. Life is not a resource to be used up, so that the older we get, the less life we have left. Life is the accumulation of wisdom, love and experience of people encountered and obstacles overcome. The longer we live, the more life we possess.
