What you must do is love your neighbor as yourself. There is no one who knows your many faults better than you! But you love yourself notwithstanding. And so you must love your neighbor, no matter how many faults you see in him.
Martin BuberEverything depends on inner change; when this has taken place, then, and only then does the world change.
Martin BuberI think no human being can give more than this. Making life possible for the other, if only for a moment.
Martin BuberThe world is not comprehensible, but it is embraceable: through the embracing of one of its beings.
Martin BuberIn spite of all similarities, every living situation has, like a newborn child, a new face, that has never been before and will never come again. It demands of you a reaction that cannot be prepared beforehand. It demands nothing of what is past. It demands presence, responsibility; it demands you.
Martin Buber
