“We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world.”

“I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.”

“What a blind person needs is not a teacher but another self.”

“Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought!”

“My share of the work may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious.”

“Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.”
