“The historical religions have the tendency to become ends in themselves, and, as it were, to put themselves in God's place, and, in fact, there is nothing that is so apt to obscure God's face as a religion.” EndsFactsFacesReligionHistoricalTendenciesObscure Author:Martin Buber
“A story must be told in such a way that it constitutes help in itself. My grandfather was lame. Once they asked him to tell a story about his teacher. And he related how the holy Baal Shem used to hop and dance while he prayed. My grandfather rose as he spoke, and he was so swept away by his story that he himself began to hop and dance to show how the master had done. From that hour he was cured of his lameness. That's how to tell a story.” WayDoneHelpingStoriesShowsUsedHoursTeacherMastersRoseRelatedHopsSpokesGrandfatherMy GrandfatherLameSwept Away Author:Martin Buber
