If a person kills a tree before its time, it is like having murdered a soul.-Rabbi Nachman

To look away from the world, or to stare at it, does not help a man to reach God; but he who sees the world in Him stands in His presence.

All real living is meeting.

I have to tell it again and again: I have no doctrine. I only point out something. I point out reality, I point out something in reality which has not or too little been seen. I take him who listens to me at his hand and lead him to the window. I push open the window and point outside. I have no doctrine, I carry on a dialogue.

Everyone must come out of his Exile in his own way.

The future stands in need of you in order to be born.

If you want to raise a man from mud and filth, do not think it is enough to stay on top and reach a helping hand down to him. You must go all the way down yourself, down into mud and filth. Then take hold of him with strong hands and pull him and yourself out into the light.
