“Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.”

“The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple, among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness.”

“Who can depart from his pain, and his aloneness without regret??”

“Long were the days of pain I have spent within its walls, and long were the nights of aloneness; and who can depart from his pain and his aloneness without regret?”

“Do not the spirits who dwell in the ether envy man his pain?”

“I love you, my brother, whoever you are - whether you worship in a church, kneel in your temple, or pray in your mosque. You and I are children of one faith, for the diverse paths of religion are fingers of the loving hand of the one supreme being, a hand extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, eager to receive all.”

“And there are those who give and know not pain in giving, nor do they seek joy, nor give with mindfulness of virtue;”
