God's Spirit moves through us and the world at a pace that can never be constricted by any one religious paradigm.

We understand God by everything in ourselves that is fragmentary, incomplete, and inopportune.

I think it's a wonderful fact about Judaism - at least about the approach to Judaism I most relate to: There are no universal answers. We don't have it all figured out. God is unknowable.

When you really believe in God, it gives you a courage, a confidence that enables you to meet the things coming.

The idea that an individual can find God is terribly self-centered. It is like a wave thinking it can find the sea.

Nothing but an imperious intellectual and moral necessity can drive into doubt a religious mind, for it is as though an earthquake shook the foundations of the soul, and the very being quivers and sways under the shock.

The Bible is very clear that God has a purpose. But even if I know that purpose, I can't fulfill it if I'm out of shape.

It is good to have an intellectual awareness of our dependence upon God - to understand how great He is and how very small we are in His sight.

God is an unutterable sigh, planted in the depths of the soul.

Part of the beauty of Judaism, and surely this is so for other faiths also, is that it gently restores control over time. Three times a day we stop what we are doing and turn to God in prayer. We recover perspective. We inhale a deep breath of eternity.
