Additional quotes by Martin Buber

For God does not want to be believed in, to be debated and defended by us, but simply to be realized through us.

Was and is dialogue with you.

There is something that can only be found in one place. It is a great treasure, which may be called the fulfilment of existence. The place where this treasure can be found is the place on which one stands.
