You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you will feel and do about what happens to you.

Only a life of goodness and honesty leaves us feeling spiritually healthy and human.

Our responding to life's unfairness with sympathy... may be the surest proof of all of God's reality.

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

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

When your life is filled with the desire to see the holiness in everyday life, something magical happens: Ordinary life becomes extraordinary, and the very process of life begins to nourish your soul.

Everything that God created is potentially holy, and our task as humans is to find that holiness in seemingly unholy situations. When we can do this, we will have learned to nurture our souls.
