"There is something more important than my life, and that is the life of the other." - Emmanuel Levinas
"Whenever you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces so as to show others that they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that your fasting may be seen not by others but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." - Matthew 6:16-18
"A hermit said, 'All chatter is unnecessary. Nowadays everyone talks but what is needed is action. That is what God wants, not useless talking.'" - The Desert Fathers
"Art is the giving by each man of his evidence to the world. Those who wish to give, love to give, discover the pleasure of giving. Those who give are tremendously strong." - The Art Spirit
"There is something more important than my life, and that is the life of the other." - Emmanuel Levinas
